The 24-year-old was in an interview with German rapper Shirin David and speaking on her YouTube channel, she revealed how Drake slid into her DM and made a cheeky request. David asked Alisha to name the most famous person she had talked to, to which the latter said, "That was only three days ago. Drake wrote to me! He asked me for a jersey."

The footballer has time and again addressed her social media-related issues and in one such conversation, she was with talkSPORT. In that interview, she said, "Some people just see Instagram and social media and don't even know I actually play football, when I don't post a football picture for a week, people say, 'Oh she doesn't even play'.”

She went on to say, "I think sometimes it's a bit hard because obviously I play like I train every day, like everyone else, like I play every weekend and sometimes it's hard because they make a picture of you. I'm a proper footballer. I work hard every day. I want to be the best version of myself in football and that's my first priority in life." Notably, Lehmann became a part of Villa in 2021 after loan spells at West Ham and Everton.
