Jens Lehmann Sacked By Hertha Board For 'quota' Message To Black Pundit Aogo by 33Solomonf(m): 4:15pm On May 05, 2021
Former Arsenal and Germany keeper Jens Lehmann has been sacked from his role on Hertha Berlin's board after sending a Whatsapp message to pundit Dennis Aogo calling him a "quota black guy".

Aogo, who works for Sky in Germany, posted a screenshot of the message from Lehmann on Instagram and wrote: "Wow you're serious? The message was probably not for me."

Lehman has apologised and said he meant that, as ex-Germany defender Aogo was "very knowledgeable", he had helped increase the "quota".

However, Tennor Holding, the investment group that Lehmann represented on the supervisory board of Bundesliga club Hertha, reportedly said the 51-year-old's "contract will be terminated with immediate effect".

Hertha Berlin club president Werner Gegenbauer said: "Such statements are in no way representative of the values that Hertha BSC stands for.

"We distance ourselves from all forms of racism and welcome the action taken by Tennor Holding."

Aogo, 34, played for Hamburg and Stuttgart among others and earned 12 caps for Germany. He retired from playing in August last year.

Lehmann made 200 appearances in two stints at Arsenal before retiring in 2011.

chaii....just too bad coming from an ex professional...it seems this racism is in all of these whites but the level of their mentality or professionalism av helped them to reduce or hide it..
Samuel Eto once said "racism in football is just like cancer, it can be controlled or reduce but CAN NEVER BE CURED..

What is the difference between that and the tribalistic bunch on NL always calling each other names.
Your name determines wether they like you or not. If you’re Adaora, they hate you already but if you’re Adeola they love you. And vice versa.

Your reasoning faculty is faulty. The issue of racism is very sensitive because people of color have been at the receiving end for centuries.

Let me ask, have you ever seen a black player do something like this I don't support racism irrespective of the perpetrators skin color. Condemn it and move on.

Go to YouTube and search racism in Football, then you will be surprised. The world cup was once hosted by an African Nation, South Africa. Did you hear of any racism issues

I want to believe you know better than the White Germans who sacked him........Mr know it all......
