Jacob signed his first professional contract with the club in January 2024 after making his senior debut in September 2023 and earning a regular place in the first team squad ever since. A former member of the Swansea City academy setup, Jacob attended Bradfield College in Reading between 2021 and 2023, and captained the football team during his time there. Having completed his time in college across the border, Jacob returned to Wales last year to start an accountancy apprenticeship, which he combines with his footballing commitments.
