Marc van Heerden (born 16 March 1988) is a South African soccer player who plays as a left-back for Cape Town City F.C in the Premier Soccer League.[2][3] He is equally adept at playing centre back and defensive midfielder.

Career overview[edit]

Van Heerden left AmaZulu F.C. for Chippa United F.C. in 2016, following AmaZulu F.C.'s unsuccessful campaign to gain promotion from the National First Division to the Premier Soccer League.[4] In 2017 Van Heerden made the switch to Orlando Pirates from Chippa United F.C.[5] Van Heerden returned to AmaZulu in 2018, this after both he and Orlando Pirates agreed to mutually terminate his contract.[6]

Van Heerden made his international debut for South Africa in a 2-0 victory against Burkina Faso on 17 August 2013.[7]
