Darida signed for Hertha from relegated Freiburg ahead of the 2015–16 season for an undisclosed fee.[3] He was handed the number 6 shirt. He made an immediate impact for Hertha scoring on his debut in the DFB-Pokal first-round game against Arminia Bielefeld in a 2–0 win. He got his first assist of the season through setting up Salomon Kalou in a 3–1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund.[4] On 27 September he got his first league goal of the season scoring the equaliser in a 1–1 draw away to Frankfurt.[5]

Aris Thessaloniki

International career

On 28 May 2012, it was announced that Darida would be included in the Czech squad for the Euro 2012 tournament. He replaced injured defender Daniel Pudil.[7] In the quarter-final match against Portugal (Euro 2012), he earned his second cap, his first in an official tournament, starting in place of the injured Tomáš Rosický. He was substituted after 61 minutes for Jan Rezek and the Czech Republic lost 1–0.[8]

Following UEFA Euro 2020, Darida announced that he would retire from international football as he wanted to focus on spending "much more time with the family and my little son." He amounted 76 caps and scored 8 goals for the Czech Republic and represented them at 3 European Championships. Having retired as captain, Tomáš Souček was named as his successor.
