Jérémy Jacquet is a French professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Premier League club Liverpool.

Early career

Jérémy Jacquet was born on 13 July 2005 in Bondy, a northeastern suburb of Paris, France. He is of Guadeloupean descent.

Club career

Rennes

On 13 January 2024, Jacquet made his professional debut for Rennes in a 2:0 victory against Nice, coming off the bench in the 86th minute.

A few weeks later, he joined fellow Ligue 1 side Clermont Foot on loan for the rest of the season.
His loan was extended after the end of the season, and he continued with Clermont Foot for the 2024-25 season, now playing in Ligue 2.

However, his loan was cancelled, and he was recalled by Rennes in February 2025, with his parent club reportedly having to pay €900,000 to end the loan early.

On 26 May 2025, he extended his contract with Rennes until 2029.

Liverpool

On 2 February 2026, Jacquet agreed to join Liverpool in the summer under a pre‑contract deal, with the transfer fee reported at £55 million plus £5 million in add-ons.

He made his debut for Liverpool in a 2:2 draw with Newcastle United at St James' Park on 23 August, in the club's first game of the 2026–27 Premier League season.

International career

Jacquet has played for France at many youth international levels.

He was named in the UEFA European Under-19 Championship Team of the Tournament in 2024, where France lost in the final to Spain.

Liverpool have officially confirmed the signing of Jeremy Jacquet from Rennes, with the centre-back expected to be available for the start of pre-season training.
A five-year deal was agreed in January for the France Under-21 international for £55m with add-ons of up to £5m.

Jacquet, 20, suffered a shoulder injury shortly after the agreement but has completed a rehabilitation programme and is now doing individual fitness work.

"For me, it's a big dream. It's a big club," said Jacquet.

"I am very happy. When I see the facilities, I can see myself there. I feel good here, and I am very excited to get started."

Jacquet came through the Rennes academy and made 33 appearances for the French Ligue 1 side.
