Jakub Moder, who was born in Poland on the 4th of July, 1999, is a central midfielder currently plying his trade at Feyenoord. At 26 years of age, this seasoned professional stands tall at 6ft 2in (1.88m) and tips the scales at roughly 12st 3lb (78kg). He carries the number 7 on his jersey as he manoeuvres through midfield, both for his club and the Polish national team to which he has already been called up.
As we traverse his career trajectory, we find a rather steady progression of skills and performance. Still quite young when he joined Lech Poznan in Poland for the 2017-2018 season, Moder only managed a single appearance that year. Pushing through the ranks over the next couple of seasons, he finally broke into the first team in the 2019-2020 season when he demonstrated his potential by bagging 26 appearances and five goals. He maintained a similar level of performance in the 2020–2021 season, showing his worth with four goals in 14 appearances.
His hard work and growing prowess did not go unnoticed, and he soon found himself in the green pastures of Brighton & Hove Albion in England's seaside town. With 12 first team appearances in his debut 2020–2021 season, he began to find his feet in English football. Throughout his time at Brighton, from 2020 to 2025, he gradually increased his appearances, peaking at 28 in the 2021–2022 season. His final season at Brighton, however, saw him only make four first team appearances before his eventual move to Feyenoord.
At Feyenoord in the Netherlands, his 2024–2025 season was rather fruitful, as he scored three goals in just 14 appearances. Looking to the incurrent 2025–2026 season, however, Moder has yet to make a first team appearance.
As far as his national duties are concerned, he has represented Poland in multiple tournaments. He took part in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024-2026 with three starts while also making his mark in Euro 2024. Participation in both Euro Qualifiers 2022-2024 and Nations League 2024-2025 also feature in his international credentials. His stint with Feyenoord also saw him start in the KNVB Beker 2024–2025.
As it stands, Moder's current market value is estimated to be roughly £10.5m according to Transfermarkt.
