Héry started his career at Paris Saint-Germain II, before moving to England to join Sheffield Wednesday’s Development Squad in June 2012. In summer 2013, Héry became Keith Hill’s first signing at Rochdale. Héry emerged as a big influence in the final weeks of the campaign as Rochdale secured promotion to League One. In his second season with the club he went on to become a prominent figure within the team featuring on 28 occasions during the 2014–15 season which saw Rochdale finish in the top half of the division. He then went on to play for Carlisle United before a spell at Accrington Stanley. He then signed for League of Ireland Premier Division side Limerick for the 2017 season before signing for their Munster neighbours Waterford.

Héry has played internationally for France twice at under-18 level.

Club career

Early career

Born in Brou-sur-Chantereine, France, Héry started playing football when he was six and joined US Torcy. Héry then joined Paris Saint-Germain.[2] Héry revealed he went on a trial at Toulouse, Strasbourg and Auxerre.[3]

After two years at PSG since turning professional,[3] Héry was released by the club before joining EFL Championship club Sheffield Wednesday in the summer of 2012.[4] Héry stated moving to England helped him cope leaving PSG.[5]

Rochdale

Having been unable to break into the Sheffield Wednesday side Héry joined League Two side Rochdale on 8 May 2013 on a free transfer.[6] Upon joining Rochdale, Héry was given the number fourteen shirt.[7]

He made his professional debut on 6 August 2013 in a Football League Cup match at Doncaster Rovers.[8] Soon after, Héry spoke about his move to Rochdale, quoting: "Last season at Sheffield Wednesday I only played in the development squad so this is my first experience of first team football and I'm enjoying it. I have learnt more in three months here playing first team football than I did during one year with the development squad."[9] Héry scored his first goal for the club on 12 October 2013, in a 3–0 win over Newport County.[10] After only making twelve appearance that season, Rochdale were promoted to League One. Héry signed a new two-year contract with Rochdale on 27 June 2014.[11]

In 2014–15 season, Héry scored his first goal of the season, in a 3–2 win against Swindon Town on 21 October 2014.[12] In his second season at Rochdale, Héry made twenty-eight appearance and scoring once in all competition, as Rochdale remained in League One for another season.

Héry was subject to a media report in February 2015 which suggested that he had called the town of his home club a "dump",[13] Héry denied the report was accurate and stated he had been misquoted by the French media from which the interview was conducted.[14] On 24 June 2015, Héry left Rochdale by mutual consent.

Carlisle United

On 24 June 2015, Héry joined League Two side Carlisle United on a one-year contract.[15] Héry gained national recognition for his performance in the third round of the League Cup, assisting Derek Asamoah in a goal against Liverpool to draw the game 1–1 at full time.[16] The game went to a penalty shootout and Héry missed the decisive kick which eliminated Carlisle.[17]

Accrington Stanley

Héry left Carlisle at the end of the 2015–16 season to join league two play-off finalists Accrington Stanley for the 2016—17 season on an initial one-year contract with a view to extend for a second.[18]

Limerick

On 22 January 2017 Héry signed for League of Ireland Premier Division side Limerick for the 2017 season. Initially used as a substitute, Hery eventually won a starting place and his performances in midfield won him both awards for both man-of-the-match and Player of the Month. His one goal of the 2017 season so far came when he scored a crucial last-minute goal at home to Bray to put Limerick 4-3 in front.

Waterford

Héry signed for Waterford for the 2018 League of Ireland Premier Division season.[19] Héry made his debut in a 2-1 win against Derry City on 17 February 2018.[20] He scored his first goal for the club against St Patrick's Athletic in a 2-0 win in 2018 .[21]
