Jonathan Steve Heris (born 3 September 1990) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Danish 3rd Division side Holstebro Boldklub.

Professional career

In the 2008–09 season, Heris was promoted from the youth academy of FC Brussels to the first team. Over time, he grew into a starter there.{{cite news |title=FC Brussels nog steeds zonder Heris en Sierens |url=https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/5b35t2jl |work=Het Nieuwsblad |date=4 February 2011 |language=nl-BE}} After shorter stints at RWS Bruxelles and Tubize, both competing at the second highest level in Belgium, he moved abroad in January 2014. Heris signed a contract with the Hungarian first division team Újpest, partly due to the Belgian chairman of the club, Roland Duchâtelet.{{cite news |title=Jonathan Heris naar Ujpest Dozsa |url=https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20140205_00966116 |work=Het Nieuwsblad |date=6 February 2014 |language=nl-BE}} At Újpest, Heris became an undisputed starter in defense. In his first season, the club won the Hungarian Cup. After three-and-a-half seasons, he moved to rivals Puskás Akadémia.{{cite news |title=Pintér újpesti igazolása: "Tetszik, amit a Puskás Akadémia képvisel" |url=http://www.csakfoci.hu/magyar-foci/nb-i/puskas_akademia/pinter-ujpesti-igazolasa-tetszik-amit-puskas-akademia-kepvisel |work=csakfoci.hu |date=28 June 2017 |language=hu}} After two seasons there, Heris returned to Újpest.{{cite news |title=Az Újpest kiszemeltje szerződést bontott a Puskás Akadémiával - ketten is távoznak Felcsútról |url=http://www.csakfoci.hu/magyar-foci/nb-i/ujpest/az-ujpest-kiszemeltje-szerzodest-bontott-a-puskas-akademiaval-ketten-is-tavoznak-felcsutrol |work=csakfoci.hu |date=29 August 2019 |language=hu}}{{cite news |title=Újabb bejelentés Újpesten: Két év után visszaigazolták a légióst |url=http://www.csakfoci.hu/magyar-foci/nb-i/ujpest/ujabb-bejelentes-ujpesten-ket-ev-utan-visszaigazoltak-a-legiost |work=csakfoci.hu |date=30 August 2019 |language=hu}}
