This is unfortunate for the player after he earned his first start in a while last match, although he has only appeared in three games all season, a minor loss for his club. He will look to next be an option when facing Union Berlin on Jan. 10 after the international break.
DECEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not in coach's plans Leitsch is fully fit and available but not in the coach's plans moving forward, coach Bo Henriksen said in a press conference, according to BILD.
Impact Leitsch has missed the last five games as he is no longer part of the coach's plans. The defender has not been good enough on the pitch and will likely look for a new project in the next transfer window since he is unlikely to feature in Mainz's match squad moving forward.
NOVEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Missing from team sheet Leitsch (illness) is out for Sunday's match against Stuttgart.
Impact Leitsch is not in the call despite some expecting him to be an option, with the defender left off the team sheet completely. He has only started in one of his five appearances on the team sheet, so this is a minor loss for the club, mainly serving in a depth role.
OCTOBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Back available Sunday Leitsch (illness) missed the last game due to illness but should be back available for Sunday's clash against Stuttgart since coach Bo Henriksen said everyone is fit for the game.
Impact Leitsch is expected to be back for Sunday's clash against Stuttgart since the coach said all the players were fit for the game and the defender dealt with an illness last week. He has been only a bench option mainly for Mainz, therefore his return will not impact the starting squad.
OCTOBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not available Saturday Leitsch (illness) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Leverkusen.
Impact Leitsch remains unavailable Saturday after missing the club's last outing due to illness. Despite the two-week international break, he has yet to recover fully and is not in the squad. His last appearance came before the setback, when he made a rare start for the team.
OCTOBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Should return Saturday Leitsch (illness) appears to be an option for Saturday's match against Leverkusen, according to manager Bo Henriksen. "But I hope and think that - apart from Robin, Anthony and Max...
Impact Leitsch was absent from the club's last match due to an illness, but after two weeks off to recover over the international break, he appears to be fit again. This is decent news for the club, as he started in the match before his absence. However, he is likely destined for the bench if fit, as he has started on the bench in four of his five appearances on the team sheet this campaign.
OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Out with flu Leitsch is out for Thursday's Conference League match against Omonia Nicosia due to the flu, according to his club.
Impact Leitsch will miss out on the club's Conference League opener, with the defender dealing with an illness heading into the contest. This is rough news for the defender, as he will also likely be questionable for Sunday's match against Hamburger. He did start the last match, so this will force a change, with Stefan Bell as a possible replacement.
OCTOBER 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Remains depth option Leitsch made 14 appearances (six starts) in his third season with Mainz.
Impact Leitsch has been a depth option since making the switch to Mainz, though he's never really established a starting role. It would be a surprise if that changed, as he largely remained on the bench even in the midst of an injury crisis in the backline.
MAY 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
FInds bench Leitsch (hip) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Bochum.

MAY 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Will be assessed before Bochum Leitsch (hip) was expected to be available last weekend but ultimately missed out. He will be assessed again on Friday to determine if he can make the match squad for Saturday's cl...

Available against Frankfurt Leitsch (hip) was back in team training this week and is available for Sunday's clash against Frankfurt after not being cited in the injury report by coach Bo Henriksen said in the...

MAY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Remains sidelined Leitsch (hip) remains sidelined for Saturday's clash with Wolfsburg.
Impact Leitsch was a doubt for Saturday's game after picking up a hip injury that sidelined him in their last contest. He remains sidelined and has only been a bench option since early November after starting the season as a regular, so his absence does not affect the starting squad.
APRIL 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Picks up hip injury Leitsch is out for Saturday's match against Hoffenheim due to a hip injury, according to his club.
Impact Leitsch is a late absence Saturday, as he has been announced out ahead of game time due to a hip injury. Luckily, this is a minor absence, as he has not appeared on the field since Feb. 16, mainly holding a reserve role and seeing time when there are injuries in the defense. Once he is fit, he will probably remain in a similar role.
APRIL 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Out to face Dortmund Leitsch is out for Sunday's match against Dortmund due to injury, according to manager Bo Henriksen.
Impact Leitsch will not be an option for the weekend, as he has been dealt an undisclosed injury and is not fit enough to compete. Luckily for the club, this should only be a minor absence moving forward, as the defender has gone unused in his past five games and hasn't seen a start since Nov. 3.
MARCH 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

He executed five clearances and blocked a shot, but his notable contribution was scoring the equalizing goal in the 94th minute to salvage a point for his team. Last season the defender was deployed occasionally from the bench and it looks like he will be used in that mode this season too. This was his first goal.

Impact The defender missed the final game of the 2023/24 season with a thigh injury, but he is fully recovered now and was part of the starting lineup for the team's most recent friendly. He should be in a good place to be available for the season opener against Union Berlin on Aug. 24.
AUGUST 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Still sidelined Leitsch (thigh) is out for Friday's match against Leverkusen.
Impact Leitsch continues on the sidelines for a further match, now missing his fifth straight contest due to a thigh issue. The defender will hope to end this absence soon, as he has now missed nine of the club's past 11 games due to different injuries. He will look to shake this off in the coming weeks, as his season has been heavily impacted by multiple injury spells throughout the campaign. Although, it hasn't affected the club too much, as he mainly serves in a rotational role.
FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with adductor injury Leitsch is not in the squad to face Augsburg on Saturday due to an adductor issue.
Impact Leitsch missies his fourth straight match as he hasn't started since November due to injury and lack of fitness.
FEBRUARY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Set for spell on sidelines Leitsch suffered a muscle injury during training this week that will leave him out for the next few weeks, the club announced Wednesday.
Impact Leistch is heading for another spell on the sidelines after already missing five games this season due to a knee injury, picking up a muscle injury during the international break that the club reported would leave him out for weeks. When the defender is healthy, he has been a regular starter, so his absence will affect the starting XI, especially seeing the team is already limited on defenders with multiple others being injured. Expect either a formation change or for Stefan Bell to start if he is healthy, or possibly even Josuha Guilavogui to play out of position in the defense if he is fit by the weekend.
NOVEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Back in training Leitsch (knee) took part in training during the international break, WAZ reports.

Sepp van den Berg has seen big minutes with Leitsch absent while Stefan Bell has been surprisingly brought back into the first team as well.
