El Chadaille Bitshiabu, born on 16 May 2002 (age 24), is a French central defender currently with Galatasaray. An imposing 6ft 5in (1.96m), he is valued at around £10m by Transfermarkt.
His senior league record began at Paris Saint-Germain, where he made one league appearance in the 2021-22 season. That was a brief opening rather than the main story.
RB Leipzig has given his career its real shape so far. Across three seasons there, Bitshiabu made 38 league appearances, establishing himself properly at senior level in a demanding Bundesliga environment.
He is now at Galatasaray, with his career still at a developing stage despite already having experience in France, Germany and Turkey. The Leipzig spell remains the clearest measure of his progress to date.
