‘Fire!’ - Alisha Lehmann reacts to Juventus’ new moon-inspired home kit as Swiss star hopes to produce out-of-this-world performances in Italy

Switzerland international Lehmann has become a new recruit in Turin ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. She has followed the lead of Brazilian boyfriend Douglas Luiz by swapping life in England at Aston Villa for that in Italy.

Lehmann is – after spending much of the summer touring the United States while watching Luiz in Copa America action – currently away with her country. She is, however, keeping a close eye on events at Juve ahead of opening a new chapter in her career.

The 25-year-old is excited to get going and is a big fan of the kit design that has been released by suppliers adidas. Juve have said of their new jersey: “Black and white blend in a bold interpretation with a cosmic touch, with a subtle cratered graphic across the entire surface that reflects the unmistakable landscape of the lunar surface.” They go on to add: “Celebrating lunar missions - the ultimate symbol of pioneering spirit: this is the goal of the 2024-25 home jersey, which aims to tell the story of Juventus' dedication to pushing the boundaries of what's possible, in continuous pursuit of progress.”

Lehmann is fully on board with that mission statement, after posting an image of the kit with a series of fire emojis, and will now be looking forward to her first outing in it. Juve have friendly dates with Colo Colo and Bayern Munich lined up at the start of August, before opening the new season away at Sassuolo.
