MŠK Žilina

Hancko made his Slovak Super Liga debut for Žilina against ŽP Šport Podbrezová on 12 March 2016, playing 11 minutes of a 2–0 defeat. His first start would come in the next season, playing the full match in a 2–2 draw against DAC Dunajska Streda. Hancko scored his first goal in the Žilina jersey in a 7–1 league win against FK Senica. He was included by UEFA on its list of most promising talents for 2018.

Fiorentina

On 14 June 2018, Hancko had signed a five-year contract with Fiorentina. He played in multiple friendly pre-season fixtures, but made his competitive debut on 22 September 2018, after being benched for four matches, during a 3–0 home victory over SPAL, coming as a substitute for Cristiano Biraghi at half time. His performance was generally well-received, receiving an average mark of 7.0/10 by the Sofascore internet portal. During January 2019 transfer window, it was reported that Zenit Saint Peterburg were looking to sign Hancko on a half-season loan, for €500,000, with an option to buy for €20 million. At this point, Hancko had only started as a substitute in two Serie A games, but was important for the national team in October and November fixtures of UEFA Nations League. Nonetheless, Fiorentina did not agree to the terms of the deal.

On 2 October 2018, shortly after his debut in Serie A, Hancko was called Slovakia's senior national team by coach Ján Kozák for matches against the Czech Republic (a part of 2018–19 UEFA Nations League) and a friendly match against Sweden. Hancko debuted in the former match, coming as a substitute to left-back Tomáš Hubočan in the 80th minute. After the international retirement of Tomáš Hubočan in February 2019, Hancko was nominated as the preferred choice as a left-back, playing the entirety of a qualifying match against Hungary on 21 March. As in previous matches, Hancko presented himself with a quite offensive football, at times playing in the line with attacking midfielders. On 11 June, Hancko scored his first international goal in a UEFA Euro 2020 qualification against Azerbaijan, ending in a 5–1 victory. He was included in Štefan Tarkovič's 26-man Slovakia squad for UEFA Euro 2020. On 7 June 2024, he was named in Francesco Calzona's 26-man Slovakia squad for UEFA Euro 2024.
