Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Gassin on France’s Côte d’Azur, Eliesse began at SC Cogolin and EFC Fréjus before joining Monaco’s academy in 2020. He made his professional debut in the Europa League in November 2022.
The breakthrough.
On 28 December 2022, he came off the bench for his first Ligue 1 appearance and scored twice to help Monaco beat Auxerre 3-2. After an injury-disrupted 2023/24 campaign, he played 46 matches in 2024/25, contributing nine goals and four assists.
Choosing Morocco.
After representing France at youth level, he chose Morocco and made his senior international debut in March 2024. That summer, he won Olympic bronze with Morocco in Paris.
A move to Germany.
In August 2025, he moved from Monaco to Bayer Leverkusen on a contract through June 2030. His game centres on dribbling, vision and creating chances, the three strengths he picked himself in a club interview.
