Jens Lehmann has become embroiled in a racism storm in Germany this morning
Arsenal Invincibles goalkeeper sent Sky Sport pundit Dennis Aogo a message asking if he was the company s token black guy on Tuesday evening
Aogo posted screenshot and said the message probably wasn t meant for him
Lehmann has since been sacked from Hertha Berlin s board as fans urge companies to cut ties with footballer-turned-pundit in wake of racism storm
What happened?
Aogo, who won 12 caps for Germany at the height of his career, posted a screenshot of Lehmann s text on his Instagram story, which read: Is Dennis actually your token black guy?
The 34-year-old also tagged his compatriot in the post with the caption: WOW, are you serious? This message wasn t supposed to go to me I guess.
Hertha BSC have since announced that Lehmann will no longer be a part of the supervisory board at the Bundesliga club.
President Werner Gegenbauer said: Such statements in no way correspond to the values that Hertha BSC stands for and actively advocates. Hertha BSC distances itself from any form of racism.
