The former skier Felix Neureuther is considered a popular TV expert.
But one scene still haunts him.
An ex-football professional didn't like it at all.
Munich – While still active, Felix Neureuther caused a stir in a hotel in Sölden.
Neureuther explained what a jealous former footballer is all about in a
ski talk
with Schweizer
Blick
.
Berahmi's jealousy makes Neureuther uncomfortable
In the interview, Neureuther can be seen that he would not like to reveal this anecdote.
After the reporter asked, the ex-ski star explained with a laugh what happened in Sölden.
At a dinner buffet, Neureuther approached the Swiss ski racer Lara Gut-Berahmi.
“I just put my hand on her shoulder: 'Hi Lara, are you okay?'
That was the reason,” he explained.
Gut-Berahmi is the wife of Valon Berahmi, who will be known to football fans from the Swiss national team or Hamburger SV.
However, Neureuther's friendly gesture displeased Berahmi.
“He wasn’t that enthusiastic,” Neureuther admitted.

Gut-Berahmi continues to be world class in the Ski World Cup
Neureuther justifies that he had no intention of upsetting his husband.
“It was the shoulder up here,” Neureuther demonstrated to the reporter with a placating gesture.
While Neureuther ended his career in 2019, Gut-Berahmi is still competing for the Swiss World Cup team.
In March 2018, she and Berahmi announced their relationship.
The wedding followed in July.
