Jakobs is the first-choice left-back and a reliable presence on a side that asks its full-backs to provide most of the team’s natural width. His Galatasaray form has held through 2025-26 and he is unlikely to be displaced in the XI.

Strengths

Overlapping pace down the left flank

Recent form

Galatasaray regular; first-choice Senegal left-back.

His Senegalese switch was completed in time to play at AFCON 2022 — and he started in the title-winning final.
