English football club Liverpool has finalized the acquisition of French defender Jeremy Jacquet from Stade Rennais in Ligue 1. Jacquet, who progressed through Rennes’ youth system, made 33 senior appearances, with 21 in the 2025-26 season cut short by a shoulder injury in February.
Liverpool secured the 20-year-old’s transfer in January, and he has inked a five-year deal at Anfield with a potential extension of 12 months, pending international clearance. Despite his recent injury, Jacquet is set to join pre-season training from the start.
Expressing his delight at joining Liverpool, Jacquet described it as a dream come true. He expressed his excitement and gratitude, emphasizing the significance of playing for a prestigious club like Liverpool.
Jacquet’s journey from Rennes’ youth setup to Liverpool involved a loan spell at Clermont Foot to gain experience. His standout performances at the U19 European Championship in 2024 showcased his talent, culminating in a place in the official Team of the Tournament.
