Brazilian left winger Leo Scienza, currently plying his trade at 1.FC Heidenheim 1846, is reportedly on the radar of Championship side Southampton FC.
At 26 years of age, Scienza has garnered attention with his performances in the Bundesliga, despite his team’s struggles.
1.FC Heidenheim 1846 is currently languishing in 16th place in the Bundesliga, yet Scienza has managed to stand out. This season, he has made 25 appearances, netting three goals and providing four assists, displaying his ability to both create and finish chances.
His market value is estimated at €3.00m, which converts to approximately 22 million Danish Kroner, a figure that Southampton FC might find attractive given Scienza’s potential upside.
Southampton FC, currently competing in England’s Championship, could greatly benefit from the injection of Scienza’s attacking prowess. His possible transfer could be a strategic move for the club, considering his age and potential for improvement.
However, any move would have to wait until the transfer window reopens on January 1st or July 1st. Today being August 17, 2025, the next opportunity for a transfer will not be until the new year. As such, both clubs and the player have ample time to consider their options.
