Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 10). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 44, 48th of 57 of the 57 centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie. At 26 Jacobs is in his prime years, and a market index of 36.1 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 44, Jacobs carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 57. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~36), then tapers with age. At 26, Jacobs sits on 36.1, at or near its peak. The blue line is Jacobs's projected Rating — 44 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
