Aston Villa star Alisha Lehmann names Real Madrid legend as her most famous follower on Instagram

Aston Villa Women's player Alisha Lehmann has revealed that former Real Madrid forward Ronaldo Nazario is her most famous follower on Instagram.

The Swiss football star played 'Unlocked' on BBC Sport with Liam MacDevitt. During the game, she was asked a few questions about her social media, one of them being the most famous celebrities who have texted her.

Lehmann didn't respond, saying that it's confidential information. She was then asked about the most famous person who followed her. She replied:

"Probably Ronaldo from Brazil. One of the GOATS. It's for Instagram, not the real world."

Lastly, MacDevitt asked Alisha Lehmann if she was the most followed athlete in women's football. Instead of reponding, the Aston Villa star asked Liam MacDevitt for the answer. The English television presenter answered:

"That's what I have heard."

Alisha Lehmann is the most female football player on Instagram, with more than 15 million followers. The United States' Alex Morgan is in second spot with around 10 million followers.

Earlier this year, Lehmann was named the most famous Instagram influencer in the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup by data analyst Gracenote Nielsen.
