ASTON VILLA footballer Alisha Lehmann is now the most followed Swiss sports star on Instagram.
She has pipped tennis legend Roger Federer to top spot, with the 21-grand slam winner boasting 11.2million followers.
Lehmann, 24, may not have achieved as much in a sporting capacity but it appears she is more popular on social media.
The forward boasts 100,000 more followers on Instagram than compatriot Federer, and is nowhere near as active as the retired star.
Lehmann has only 171 posts but several photos have broken the 1m ‘likes’ barrier.
Most popular are shots of Lehmann in a Villa kit, either on the training pitch or in match action.

Lehmann is also known for her raunchy side which includes bikini snaps on the beach.
But it has also led to trouble for the Swiss after she broke up with Villa star Douglas Luiz following a row they had over Lehmann starring in a sizzling 2023 calendar.
Lehmann has a rich dating history which includes Swiss international Ramona Bachmann, who used to play for Chelsea Women.
Fans of the Villa ace get an insight into her life on Instagram, with posts often documenting her travels to places like Miami and Rio de Janeiro.
