Douglas Luiz of Aston Villa has reportedly broken up with his footballer girlfriend Alisha Lehmann after a row.
Alisha, 23, who plays for Aston Villa’s women’s team, had been in a relationship with Douglas Luiz for a year.
The two footballers reportedly met at a club in Birmingham, England where their romantic relationship began.
The two Aston Villa players saw their affection for each other grow and blazed at the initial stages of the relationship.
In January this year, Alisha gave up her rented penthouse apartment to move into Douglas’ £1.5million five-bed room apartment in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham.
Shockingly, they had reportedly broken up following heated arguments over Alisha’s raunchy calendar.
The Swiss star, who plays as a forward for the Aston Villa women’s team, is now staying with a team-mate following the break-up.
A source close to the former lovers has confirmed that Douglas was completely swept off his feet at the club in Birmingham when the beautiful blonde first arrived.
He quickly asked her out and they became a footballing power couple and were so loved up.
However, things turned for the worst when Alisha became more in demand off the pitch, and the duo could not move on smoothly together as before, with the wear in the relationship becoming evident.
According to reports, Alisha was eager to do a calendar when asked and had jumped at the idea of showing off her sexy body.
Douglas Luiz was said to be uncomfortable with Alisha’s exhibitionist and raunchy calendar, saying she should not have done that.
Alisha, on the other hand, did not yield and is said to have vehemently opposed her lover, building on the already evident cracks in the relationship.
As the row continued, Alisha, who is also a bisexual is said to have opted out of the relationship and left Douglas Luiz to stay with her teammate.
Before this break-up, Alisha is said to have been in a relationship with a 25-year-old fellow Swiss teammate, Ramona Bachmann.
Meanwhile, his ex-lover and Brazil international Douglas is currently back in Brazil after Alisha left him, moving out of a £1.5million house in Birmingham.
A source suggested that Alisha jumped at the chance to show off her sexy side and cared little about her lover’s opinion.
At the time of publishing this report, both Alisha Lehmann and Douglas Luis were yet to make a public statement on their reported split.
