Jacob always had a great level of technical ability but through his early teenage years was on the small side. This put a lot of clubs off but Jacob and his parents stayed focused and committed. Now he is a on a footballing adventure with one of Europe’s top clubs.

Jacob signed this summer for FC Zenit Saint Petersburg. He’s currently enjoying working with many of the first team players in the U23 squad. Jacob worked with us at our Chesham and Hemel Hempstead centres before moving into our Elite Squads and also training and playing with ProFormance Global in the showcase squads.
