Bundesliga duo battling for Scienza signing

According to Sport Bild, both Borussia Mönchengladbach and 1. FC Köln are showing interest in 1. FC Heidenheim winger Leo Scienza.

1. FC Heidenheim winger Leo Scienza has caught the eye of both Borussia Mönchengladbach and 1. FC Köln, according to Sport Bild.

However, Heidenheim reportedly want at least €6 million for the 26-year-old, while the two Rhineland clubs are only willing to offer around half that amount.

As a result, negotiations have stalled, although Scienza himself is open to taking the next step in his career.

Heidenheim signed Scienza from SSV Ulm just a year ago for a fee of €600,000.

After making the move from the 3. Liga to the Bundesliga, the Brazilian attacker impressed in his first season at Heidenheim, scoring six goals and providing eight assists in 37 appearances.
