About the player
Philipp Hercher scored the winning goal in the decisive relegation play-off against Dynamo Dresden in 2022, which took 1. FC Kaiserslautern up to the 2. Bundesliga.
Kaiserslautern signed him from SG Sonnenhof Großaspach on 1 July 2019 for €178,000. He made 125 appearances and scored 18 goals across the 3. Liga and the 2. Bundesliga. His best season came in 2021/22, with six goals and ten assists. In 2020 the club won the Landespokal Südwest, beating SV Alemannia Algesheim 5:3 on penalties. Kaiserslautern reached the DFB-Pokal final in 2024, but Hercher did not play in the match against Bayer Leverkusen. A persistent hip injury during 2023/24 had kept him out for long stretches.
He came through the youth ranks at SV Ihrlerstein and SSV Jahn Regensburg before joining 1. FC Nürnberg in 2011. He won the B-Junioren-Bundesliga Süd/Südwest with Nürnberg in 2011/12. With the reserve side in the Regionalliga Bayern he played 60 games and scored 23 goals. He also played three 2. Bundesliga matches for the first team. A loan at VfR Aalen in the 3. Liga in 2017 followed. After moving to Großaspach in 2018 he played 37 matches and scored five goals, and that season led to the move to Kaiserslautern.
Hercher left Kaiserslautern on a free transfer to 1. FC Magdeburg on 1 July 2024. He has made 58 appearances for Magdeburg and scored seven goals.
