'Happy days!' - Alisha Lehmann throws it back to the day she joined Juventus as she steps up pre-season preparations

Taking to Instagram, Lehmann declared she is in 'happy days' after joining Juventus from Aston Villa. The Swiss forward showed off the black and white painted nails before making a heart shape with her hands, declaring her love and affection for the Italian side already.

Lehmann has stepped up her preparations for the new season and is in pre-season training with the rest of her new team-mates. Alongside Lehmann, the Italian club shared the progress of their other new signings Hanna Bennison, Paulina Krumbiegel and Amalie Vangsgaard from Everton, Hoffenheim and Paris Saint-Germain respectively.

Lehmann joined Juventus after her boyfriend Douglas Luiz first made the switch from Aston Villa to the Italian giants. Lehmann described their moves as "a dream" as they would once again be playing for the same club.

Pre-season continues for Lehmann and she will have the opportunity to make her debut in the famous black and white stripes against Colo-Colo on August 9. Juventus and Lehmann will be dreaming of clawing the Serie A title back from Roma, who have won back-to-back titles.
