FC Köln were relegated from the Bundesliga, she moved to SC Freiburg for the 2020/21 season. After the resurgence of 1. FC Köln in the Bundesliga, she moved to 2021/22 season back to her old club, where played in one league game.

Ahead of the 2022/23 season, Herzog switched to RB Leipzig in the 2. Bundesliga. In a title-winning year, the Swiss goalie played in 18 of the 26 matches, taking seven clean sheets.
