Daniel Hanslik (born 6 October 1996) is a German professionalfootballer who plays as aforward for1. FC Kaiserslautern.[1][2]
Hanslik grew up in the northeast ofHesse and was trained in football from the age of four at the local clubs SV Unterhaun, SV Steinbach and JFV Bad Hersfeld, where he mainly played in defense.[3] At Bad Hersfeld and Steinbach, Hanslik, who was initially used in midfield in addition to the attack, had his first experiences in the men's division in the sixth class Verbandsliga Hessen and in theHessenliga. As a result, Hanslik even played forArsenal, but was not signed for the club's youth teams.[4]
Scoring 33 goals in 64 competitive games for both clubs,VfL Wolfsburg became aware of the attacker and signed him in the summer of 2017.[5] Hanslik's advisor at the time, Kujtim Mustafi, father of the German national playerShkodran Mustafi, arranged the contact to the club.[4] There, Hanslik trained more often with the professionals during the international or winter breaks, but was only used in theRegionalliga team. Here, Hanslik continued to prove his scoring threat and scored 30 goals in 52 competitive games. He was able to net three times in the two relegation games to the3. Liga againstFC Bayern Munich II in spring 2019.
The next step in his career followed for the striker, when he was signed by the2. Bundesliga clubHolstein Kiel for three years in March 2019. In the 1–1 draw againstFC Erzgebirge Aue on 1 September 2019, 22-year old Hanslik was in the starting line-up, making it his first time in professional football.
During the winter break, Kiel loaned the attacker to3. Liga clubFC Hansa Rostock until the end of the season.[6] During the second half of the season, Hanslik made 17 appearances (three goals) in Rostock and one in the2019–20 Verbandspokal.
On 5 October 2020, Hanslik was loaned out again, this time to fellow3. Liga club1. FC Kaiserslautern until the end of the 2020–21 season.[7] Hanslik scored the winning goal for Kaiserslautern in their promotion playoff againstDynamo Dresden, helping the team to earn promotion to the2. Bundesliga for the first time since2018.[8]
