Soccer Star Guilia Gwinn On PlayBoy’s Magazine Cover Offer Ahead Of This Year’s Women’s World Cup

Well, as it turns out, not all 20-something young women athletes are ready to strip naked for fame and money, some actually want to hone their careers and be known for that instead of their bodies.

24-year-old German soccer player  Guilia Gwinn has been approached by Playboy Magazine for a nude cover ahead of the upcoming Women’s World Cup, but Guilia and the German team turned the offer down. Playboy indicated in their communiqué that Guilia’s beauty is interesting to them, and would want to partner with her.

The team responded that although Guilia won’t be playing in this year’s World Cup due to injury, she wouldn’t be reduced to a sexual object. Reports say four under-20 women appeared nude on Playboy’s cover before the 2011 World Cup, and their careers suffered drastically afterward. So while going nude helps women’s careers in the US, it derails them in Germany.

According to TPS;

A German soccer player who has become well known for being exceptionally gorgeous is now responding to a request from Playboy.

Giulia Gwinn, a midfielder on FC Bayern Munich and a member of Germany’s national team, was approached by Playboy at the start of the year, the publication BILD reported, to pose for a nude Playboy cover shoot ahead of this year’s Women’s World Cup.

She apparently turned it down as “it is not an option for her.”

“Giulia Gwinn is not only an outstanding athlete, but also a beautiful young woman. So a personality like her is naturally interesting for Playboy,” Florian Boitin, editor-in-chief, and publisher of Playboy Germany, said in a statement to BILD.

Gwinn is a member of the German national team, but she will not be playing in the Women’s World Cup as she recovers from an injury. Just because she is injured, does not mean she will fill that time by taking off her clothes.

The 24-year-old tore a cruciate ligament for the second time in October.

“When I tore my cruciate ligament for the second time in October 2022, one of my first thoughts was: How long until the World Cup in the summer? Can I make it if everything’s going perfect? Fairly calculatively, the World Cup participation was always in. And probably I wouldn’t have believed it for so long if my rehab hadn’t gone really ideal. Very thankful for my doctors, physios, and athletic trainers for being them. And in the last week of this Bundesliga season, after 7.5 months, I was able to complete parts of the team training completely without problems,” she wrote, according to an Instagram translation.

“For me, this week with the team was incredibly valuable emotionally: because I reached my personal goal. Yes, I have to rearrange this for myself in the coming days: actually being fit and still not having a chance to recommend me for one of the World Cup places. A few days you can be sad and disappointed, but then the pride of the other successfully completed rehab should definitely outweigh!”

Five players from Germany’s Under-20 squad appeared in Playboy before the 2011 World Cup but allegedly “struggled to progress in their playing careers,” The Sun reports.

The Women’s World Cup is set to begin in Australia on Thursday.

While some will say Guilia is being restricted and not allowed to do whatever she wants with her body, I say she is being given the same chance as men, getting known for her talent and not her body.

Where would you rather be? The US, where women have to go nude to prove themselves, or Germany, where it takes just talent to succeed without stripping down at any point?
