Alisha Lehmann was namedropped in a song by popular German rapper Farid Bang and it has angered football fans in the Aston Villa star’s native Switzerland.
Farid Bang is known for writing shocking lyrics and his latest single, 'Godfather', has caused outrage in Switzerland.
The 37-year-old’s song features the explicit remark: "I'm not a ball, but between Alisha Lehmann's legs."
Swiss media, as per the Star, claim the lyric has infuriated local football fans where Lehmann plays for the women's national side.

Lehmann, who plays for the WSL’s Aston Villa, has not responded to the song.
Bang, a rapper with more than 3.2million Instagram followers, has caused controversy in the past with his lyrics. In 2020 he was forced to apologise after making an anti-Semitic reference to the holocaust.
Upon making a public apology, he visited the Nazi death camp Auschwitz as an act of atonement.
Lehmann, whose Aston Villa side has endured a turgid winless start to the WSL season, has opened up about the bizarre treatment she receives, even from fellow celebrities.
She once claimed an unnamed A-lister had offered £90,000 to spend a single night with her in Miami.
Speaking to podcaster Shirin David, Lehmann claimed the message said: "I'll pay Alisha 100,000 Swiss Francs (£90,121) for a night with her."
On the matter, Lehmann added: "Of course, I didn't answer, it was crazy.
“The message was from someone very well known. We've met before, but not in person.
“We were at the same event.
"I can't reveal [whether it’s a footballer]. But he is very, very well known internationally."
Lehmann’s Villa side have lost all of their first five games of the season, having conceded some 16 goals in the process.
