Johannes Cornelis Jozef Plat (born February 26, 1987 in Purmerend , North Holland ) is a Dutch football player who is used as a left-footed offensive player , in particular as a striker and in the offensive midfield . After spending his career exclusively in the second Dutch division, the Eerste Divisie , he moved to Germany in 2012 .

Career

Youth in North Holland

In North Holland born Purmerend, Plat began his sporting career in the F-youth of the "Rooms Katholieke Amateur Voetbalvereniging" (RKAV, German: Roman Catholic amateur football association) from his home in Edam-Volendam . As a D youth, Plat moved to the Ajax Youth Academy in Amsterdam , where he was used in particular as a ten . As a result of a back injury, however , he left Amsterdam again and joined the youth AZ Alkmaar .

Beginning in Volendam and Zwolle

Because he saw no prospect of a place for the professional team competing in the Eredivisie in Alkmaar , Plat changed clubs again at the end of his youth, so that FC Volendam was his first stop in the men's area. At the beginning of the 2007/08 season of the second-rate Eerste Divisie, Plat then belonged to the Volendams regular team during the first three league games, where he was able to score his first goal in the first of these games. Subsequently, however , coach Stanley Menzo preferred other players to Plats position, so that he only made eight substitutions in the further course of the first half of the season and only three substitutions in the subsequent second half. Although Volendam was finally due to the better goal difference compared to the tied runner-up, the RKC Waalwijk , second division champion and thus rose directly to the Eredivisie, but Plat decided to leave Volendam again.

Together with his two years younger brother Robert , who was one of his teammates in Volendam, Plat joined FC Zwolle in the 2008/09 season . So Plat stayed in the second division, but left North Holland for the first time permanently with the move to Overijssel'sche Zwolle . In the first games of the first half of the season, however, Plat was not used for the team coached by Jan Everse due to a parasitic infection , so that he could not make his debut for Zwolle until the beginning of October. A little later, Plat then fell out again due to a thigh injury, so that he finally did not participate again until the beginning of the second half of the season in December 2008, but could not earn a regular place. Even under Marco Roelofsen , who was appointed as a coach from March 2009 , Plat was mostly only used as a substitute, but reached the relegation games for promotion to the Eredivisie with Zwolle as fourth in the final table. There, however, the team failed at SC Cambuur-Leeuwarden . In the meantime, FC Zwolle had already let an option to extend Plat's expiring contract expire.

Intermediate stops in Dordrecht and Oss

After both Johan and his brother Robert had kept fit in the meantime at RKAV Volendam, Johan Plat found a new club in early June 2009 in FC Dordrecht, which also played in the second division , with which he initially agreed on a one-year amateur contract. In Dordrecht , South Holland , however, Plat again failed to work out a regular place, so that he was only nominated twice for the starting line-up by coach Gert Kruys until the winter break and only appeared on the substitute in nine other games.

In January 2010, Plat therefore moved within the Eerste Divisie to FC Oss , where he signed a contract until the end of the 2009/10 season and was supposed to help keep the relegation-threatened team from Noord-Brabant . Thereupon Plat managed to establish himself for the first time as a regular player in a second division team, despite slight initial difficulties, so that he came to a total of 13 missions under coach Hans de Koning , in which he also scored five goals. The eventual relegation of Oss to the top class could not be averted, whereupon he left the club after half a year of membership.

Breakthrough at Telstar

In mid-July 2010, Plat initially completed a trial training session at AGOVV Apeldoorn , which in turn has now been trained by Hans de Koning. However, Apeldoorn did not subsequently commit Plats. From the end of July, Plat took part in Telstar's training operations, where he finally signed an amateur contract at the beginning of August and thus returned to North Holland.

Under coach Jan Poortvliet , Plat succeeded in Telstar at the beginning of the second division season 2010/11 but not to get a regular place, so that he initially acted as a substitute. From October 2010, however, this changed, whereby Plat came to a total of 27 missions by the end of the season and was the most successful goalscorer of his team with ten goals this season. In the following season 2011/12, Plat was once again one of the top performers at Telstar with 32 out of 34 possible appearances, and he was also the team's top scorer with 15 goals this season. Telstar was only able to place itself as fourteenth and fifteenth of the final table in both seasons.

Plat in Germany

In the summer of 2012, Plat switched to the German FC Hansa Rostock , who was relegated from the 2nd Bundesliga to the 3rd division in the 2012/13 season and signed a two-year contract with Plat. Previously, Plat had completed a trial session under coach Wolfgang Wolf , who called him into the starting line-up in six of the first eight games of the season, with Plat scoring a total of four goals during this period. When coach Wolf was replaced by Marc Fascher due to disappointing results , Plat lost his place in the starting eleven to Ondřej Smetana and was only used five times as a substitute, so that he also played for the second substitute in the Oberliga Nordost in order to get match practice . At the end of the first half of the season, as well as throughout the second half of the season, Plat was able to re-establish himself in the Rostock team, but instead of trying to get promoted again, it now played against further relegation to fourth division. In the end, however, the team achieved safe relegation with twelfth place in the final table, which Plat had a share of with ten goals scored in 33 appearances and thus became the top scorer of his team.
