Ex-Premier League star and girlfriend 'split up' after historic double transfer
@Source: mirror.co.uk
Douglas Luiz and Alisha Lehmann have reportedly called time on their relationship, months after moving to Italy together. The former Aston Villa star and Lehmann joined Juventus' men's and women's team respectively back in the summer. Luiz and Lehmann were both on the books at Villa when they met and started dating back in 2021. They broke up a year later before rekindling their relationship in 2024 shortly before their big move across Europe to Italy. A new report from Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport alleges that the couple have now once again gone their separate ways and, apparently, did so 'some time ago'. The development comes at a time where Luiz is said to be pursuing a move away from the Serie A giants. Lehmann, on the other hand, is thought to be happy to remain in Turin, where she helped Juventus win the league title. Luiz has featured just 16 times in the league for Juventus this season after struggling with injuries. The former Manchester City man has already been linked with a return to the Premier League ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window. He was even linked with a shock return to The Etihad back in January, though a move failed to materialise. Nottingham Forest are now said to be among the frontrunners for the Brazilian midfielder's signature, as first revealed by Tuttosport earlier this week. Luiz was regarded as a major coup for Juventus after impressing in his final season with Aston Villa, which he referenced while responding to a fan who asked whether the midfielder had come to Juventus to 'play or take pictures' on social media. He fired back: "I didn’t come here just to post photos. No one else did that, and I want things to be different. I came here with a purpose. I listened to my heart when I arrived and decided to sign. "Now I want you to answer me: why hasn’t a signing like mine played two consecutive games with this shirt? You can say what you want to the press later: 'Oh, Douglas is not fit.' Am I not fit? I did all the pre-season and played every game. "I had just had one of the best seasons of my career, one of the best midfielders in the Premier League."
