Football Couple Sami Khedira and Melanie Leupolz Expect Second Child
Former German football stars Sami Khedira and Melanie Leupolz are expecting their second child. The couple, together for several years, rarely appear in public jointly. Leupolz, a European champion, and Khedira, a World Cup winner, have accumulated over 150 caps for the German national team combined. Leupolz ended her playing career this summer after a successful tenure including time at Real Madrid and Chelsea. She paused her career around the birth of their first child in October 2022. Khedira, now retired, supports his family and works as a TV expert for DAZN, while Leupolz will start a full-time role as coordinator for Female Player Care & Development later this year. Close sources confirmed the couple’s growing family following earlier speculation after Germany’s 2029 European Championship win. The couple has been balancing roles as parents and professionals, and now prepare for the arrival of their second child.
