Lehmann's neighbor's house is located close to his own, and the reasons for this incident were caused by previous heated arguments. The garage was vandalized by the German because it took away his view of Lake Starnberg and because he considers that it was built on his land.

The moment of the attack was recorded and the neighbor has reported him for 'property damage and coercion'. The former Arsenal goalkeeper also sparked controversy as he was sacked from Herta Berlin last year for a racist comment about a former teammate.

Lehmann bought the property as an Arsenal player

Lehmann has lived in the property, located southwest of Munich, for more than 15 years. He bought the property when he was an Arsenal player for €5 million, according to the 'Daily Mail'. With the shirt of the 'Gunners' came to play a total of 200 games.
