Lohmann also played for her country at Euro 2025, where she helped Germany reach the semi-finals before being defeated by Spain after extra time.
It was a tournament marred by players being targeted for abuse. England defender Jess Carter revealed she had suffered racism online during the tournament, while Spain forward Salma Paralluelo was also abused after missing in the penalty shootout of the final loss to the Lionesses.
Lohmann, who has a significant online fanbase with 127,000 Instagram followers, said she was also targeted with abuse after Germany’s Euros exit.
While she had “never received that many notifications or comments”, she had been able to deal with the unsavoury comments through the support of team-mates and coaches.
“To see and read that stuff right after the game when you are sensitive to that… of course you shouldn’t experience that, but I know where to put it and in what context,” said Lohmann. “There will always be some idiots.
“There needs to be more things done, it is good English players have raised their voices to put pressure on. It is important not to let people say whatever they want.”
