Lehmann, 54, had been with Conny since the pair tied the knot in 1999.

Jens Lehmann has reportedly split with his wife of 25 years

The yoga instructor, 52, was by his side for the entirety of his stint with Arsenal, and is the mother of his two children Mats, 24 and Lieselotta, 18.

According to German outlet Bild, the pair have split for good - having been on-off for a while.

The report adds that Conny has moved out of the family home, where Lehmann remains with their children, and has found a new partner.

Lehmann, Conny and their kids did go on holiday as a family during the summer months.

But it's claimed that there are no longer romantic feelings between the former couple.

Both attended Oktoberfest in Munich last weekend, but not together.

Lehmann was allegedly seen enjoying himself with several younger women.

While Conny was there with friends.

In addition to Mats and Lieselotta, Conny has a child from her previous relationship with Knut Reinhardt, a former Germany international.

Lehmann went on to adopt his wife's child from her past relationship.

The former Arsenal stopper has endured a difficult period of late.

On his way back from Oktoberfest last weekend, reports in Germany claim that he was arrested for drink driving.

It's claimed that he was "staggering and smelled of alcohol" - and that breath tests were abandoned with Lehmann "unable to blow" - the ex-keeper instead taken to a police station for further testing.

On Friday, Lehmann was hit with a £112,000 fine after being found guilty of property damage and attempted fraud following a chainsaw attack on a neighbour's garage.

He had initially been slapped with a 10-month suspended prison sentence and £350,000 fine following his guilty verdict last December.

But the amount was reduced by a Munich court upon appeal.
