Marlon Heugh (born 25 July 1990) is a South African soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for Royal AM in the South African Premier Division.

He was born in Cape Town and hails from Kraaifontein. Playing several years for Highlands Park, he was a reserve to several goalkeepers, among others Tapuwa Kapini. In 2019 he alternated with Thela Ngobeni. [1] [2] The team earned promotion from the 2015–16 and then the 2017–18 National First Division. In between, he made his first-tier debut in the 2016–17 South African Premier Division. [3]

Heugh moved on to TS Galaxy in 2020. The 2020–21 season was somewhat successful, with Heugh being given the Player of the Season award in an internal ceremony. [4] After being released by TS Galaxy in 2022 he was acquired by Royal AM in 2022. [5]

He did not become a regular player here either, [6] and was loaned out to Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila in 2023. Royal AM was originally going to release Heugh, but received a transfer ban from FIFA and therefore chose to recall Heugh from loan in September 2023. On a short term, Heugh would take up the competition with Xolani Ngcobo and Mondli Mpoto, neither of whom had impressed, according to iDiski Times. [7] [8]
