Christian Herc has got a contract at Wolverhampton Wanderers until 2020 but does he have a future with the Premier League club?

Wolves fans cheer on their team during the Premier League match between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur at Molineux on November 3, 2018 in Wolverhampton, United Kingdom.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have a whole host of players out on loan right now from forgotten senior men like Joe Mason, Danny Batth and Phil Ofosu-Ayew to promising young talents such as Donovan Wilson, Rafa Mir and Connor Ronan.

But it would take something special for any of them to overshadow the achievements of Christian Herc.

The 20-year-old Slovakian may not be a player that Wolves fans are overly familiar with given that he hasn’t made a single first-team appearance for the Black Country side since he arrived from FC Nitra in 2015.

But Herc appears to be making a real impression on loan at Dunajska Streda. Since returning to his homeland in the summer, Herc has scored three times and produced five assists from the centre of midfield.

And Dunajska have clearly benefited from his presence in the middle of the park. FC DAC are second in the Slovakian Fortuna Liga table right now and in a genuine position where they can challenge for a domestic top flight title for the first time since 1985.

Should Herc help make history with Dunajska, this will do his chances of a role in Wolves’ plans no harm at all. The Slovakia U21 international currently has almost another two years left on his contract and he will be dreaming of returning to Molineux next summer with a medal around his neck.
