German football legend Lothar Matthaus is making waves in his homeland after being repeatedly pictured with a new ‘girlfriend’ 38 years his junior.

The 64-year-old, who has been divorced five times, has been strutting about in public with 26-year-old Instagram model Theresa Sommer.

Matthaus, who won the 1990 World Cup with West Germany and seven Bundesliga titles with Bayern Munich, has been seen watching football, driving, and even at a celebrity ski race with Sommer. 

But 38 years is on a different level to any relationship that he has been known to have – though it is not clear if this one is platonic or romantic.

According to her LinkedIn page, Sommer studied economics and management at King’s College in London before taking psychology at Durham University.

Back in April, she and Matthaus were seen attending a celebrity ski race in Ischgl in Austria.

They were also at the Allianz Arena in Munich for Germany’s semi-final match against Portugal in the Nations League and Spain’s final against the latter four days later.  

Meanwhile, they were also filmed in a car together on their way to an event.

German newspaper Bild made contact with Matthaus about his latest connection but he did not reply.

When they were at the skiing contest, they told A2 Television: ‘We came for skiing, and the rest is a private matter.’

Matthaus’ life off the pitch has seldom been quiet, with the former Germany captain going through five divorces.

Matthaus married his first wife, Silvia, in 1981. The couple had two children – Alisa born in 1986 and Viola born in 1988 – but divorced in 1992.

In the same year, Lolita Morena gave birth to his third child, Loris.

Matthaus and Morena, a Swiss model and TV presenter who represented her country at Miss World in 1982 and Miss Universe a year later, were married in 1994 but divorced in 1999 shortly before his retirement.

Matthaus swapped the pitch for the dugout two years later, beginning his managerial career at Rapid Vienna in September 2001 before taking charge of Partizan Belgrade in December of the following year.

Success as a manager may have eluded him, but he found love again in the Serbian capital in the shape of 31-year-old fashion entrepreneur Marijana Colic.

Colic, who along founding two fashion brands was the face of Samsung’s football-themed campaign during the 2006 World Cup, was married to Serbian agribusiness magnate Miodrag Kostic between 1990 and 1999.

She and Matthaus tied the knot in November 2003, but their marriage came to an end four years later after a lengthy divorce case in Salzburg – their last shared residence.

The pair initially separated after Matthaus began dating Ukrainian model Kristina Liliana Chudinova in 2007.

Colic, who still bears Matthaus’ surname, filed for divorce soon afterward. During the year-long divorce case, the couple allegedly looked to reach an out-of-court settlement over the division of their assets.

The former Bayern Munich reportedly offered his ex-wife an €100,000 settlement and the ownership of their penthouse in Budapest.

Matthaus married his third wife, Marijana Colic, in 2003 but divorced in 2007

While details of the divorce case were not made public, Blic reported Colic did not appeal the ruling, suggesting she was satisfied with the outcome.

By the time the divorce was officially ratified in January 2009, Matthaus had already married Chudinova. He was 47 at the time, 26 years older than her.

The pair met at the Oktoberfest in Munich in 2007 and exchanged vows in Las Vegas in December 2008.

The fact the pair tied the knot came as a surprise in itself, give they briefly went separate ways in February 2008 before reconciling their differences.

They lived in Tel Aviv, where the former Germany star took charge of Maccabi Netanya in June 2008, only to terminate his contract in April of the following year with the club mired in financial dire straits.

Matthaus’ fourth marriage hit the rocks early in 2010, when tabloids released pictures of his wife passionately embracing an unnamed Monaco businessman on his yacht during a holiday in Sardinia.

Matthaus married for a fifth and hitherto last time in 2014, when he tied the know with Anastasia Klimko, from whom he had a son, Milan.

The couple divorced in 2021 but were spotted together at the Oktoberfest two years later, leading to speculations a rekindling of their flame may be on the cards.
