According to reporter Santi Ona, Marseille is pursuing Heitleida with all his might.

reported that Marseille has been seeking to strengthen the defense for weeks, and now they have targeted the previous Paris target and Leipzig defender Heitleida.

Heitleida is a defensive all-rounder who can play multiple roles in the backcourt. But his development in Leipzig was not smooth. The existing contract between Heitleida and Leipzig will expire in 2029, and its current value is valuated at 20 million euros.

Last season, Heitleida made 35 appearances for Leipzig, including 27 starts, contributing 1 goal and 1 assist.
