The year 2024 has been a rollercoaster ride for Lena Oberdorf. Witnessing VfL Wolfsburg relinquish the championship to Bayern Munich, she made a powerful statement by transferring to the Bavarian giants, becoming Germany’s most expensive female footballer in history. However, a devastating ACL injury just before the Olympic Games cut short her promising debut campaign. This major setback prompted Oberdorf to seek solace in the support of a psychologist and, eventually, to utilize her voice to talk openly about the emotional toll of severe online abuse and death threats she experienced following her move to Bayern.
In a poignant statement she revealed, “For me personally as an individual, it was the worst thing that could happen. I just wanted to protect myself because these comments, they don’t pass you and everyone who says is a little shit, he’s just lying. It doesn’t go by without a trace of what is there.”

Oberdorf, taking a break from sporting contests, regained her creativity and restored a sense of normalcy through social media platforms. Recently, she uploaded a video on Instagram and TikTok showcasing her physical rehabilitation journey with her supporters. However, her latest endeavor took a different approach.
The video, set up as a playful interview with fellow athlete Rena Schwabl, offers more intrigue than clarity. They both seem bewildered, laughing off their technological inadequacies while joking about a hypothetical lawsuit by former football star, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Oberdorf even declared, “We have been talking for five minutes and are already being sued by Ibrahimović.”
A lighthearted exchange soon transitions into a declaration that left fans buzzing. “It’s good that you are not a puff mom,” remarked Oberdorf to Schwabl, forging a path into a complexity that left viewers intrigued. In the end, Oberdorf leaves the final decision in the hands of the fans with a pertinent question: “Do you want more?!”
The cryptic video added fuel to the fire, with Oberdorf’s caption providing some clarity: “be honest … you want a podcast or net?” The inference is clear: a podcast is in the works.
