Career

Leistner began his career with Dynamo Dresden, who he joined in 2010 from Borea Dresden, primarily as a reserve-team player. After a few appearances on the bench he made his first-team debut in April 2011, when he replaced Florian Jungwirth in a 3. Liga match against SpVgg Unterhaching. Dynamo were promoted at the end of the 2010–11 season, and Leistner made three appearances in the 2. Bundesliga the following year. In January 2013 he signed for Hallescher FC on a six-month loan. He returned to Dynamo for the 2013–14 season, and became a first-team regular after the winter break, but was unable to prevent the club being relegated to the 3. Liga. At the end of the season, he signed for Union Berlin.

Queens Park Rangers

On 1 July 2018, Leistner signed for Queens Park Rangers on a three-year deal following the expiry of his contract in Germany. He scored his first goal for the club in a 1–0 win against Reading on 2 October 2018.

After being in and out of team under by new manager Mark Warburton on 30 January 2020, Leistner was loaned out to 1. FC Köln until the end of the 2019–20 season.

On 28 August 2020, Leistner had his contract terminated by mutual consent. The same day he became a new Hamburger SV player.
