WHAT ALISHA LEHMANN SAID
She told 20min: "I've settled in very, very well. We have a really cool team, we're ambitious and have big goals. That's why we train a lot. We all get on really well and the conditions at Juventus are great. I'm very, very happy."
Lehmann added: "I'm already feeling much better. I'm in rehab now and have been training a lot. I have good people around me at Juventus and I'll be fit again soon."

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Lehmann has played 15 times for Juventus, scoring two goals along the way. However, she is not a regular for the Italian giants, and with boyfriend Douglas Luiz struggling for game time at the Old Lady, the famous couple could be on the move this summer — unless they are prepared to do a long-distance relationship.
