Jonathan Steve Heris (born 3 September 1990) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for RWD Molenbeek.

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. ^[1] After shorter stints at RWS Bruxelles and Tubize, both competing at the second highest level in Belgium, he moved abroad in January 2014. ^[2] Heris signed a contract with the Hungarian first division team Újpest, partly due to the Belgian chairman of the club, Roland Duchâtelet. ^[3] At Újpest, Heris became an undisputed starter in defense. In his first season, the club won the Hungarian Cup. ^[4] After three-and-a-half seasons, he moved to rivals Puskás Akadémia. ^[5] After two seasons there, Heris returned to Újpest. ^{[6] [7]}

On 14 July 2020, it was announced that Eupen had signed Heris on a two-year contract. ^{[8] [2] [9]} On 10 August, he made his debut in the starting line-up against Oud-Heverlee Leuven. ^[10]

In the summer of 2022, Heris returned to RWD Molenbeek on a two-year contract. ^[11]
