Output in context · Almere City FC finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
2.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 11 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 55.3% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 48.1, Jacobs carries the 25th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Eerste Divisie of 37 — though on just 11 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.67 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.
