Jacob Christensen is a holding midfielder at 1. FC Köln, rated 68 overall in FC 26 with a potential of 74, CDM. By the standards of the role, that's unremarkable. At 24 they already deliver and still rise (ceiling 74): the sweet spot between output and projection.

Their place is in front of the defence as CDM. Their job is the dirty work: win the ball back, cover the full-backs when they push on and hold their position. They can also play CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Holding, which reinforce that profile.
Where they really hurt you is short passing (70) and stamina (70). Their short passing is decent and it's the trait to build their game around.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 2,1 M€ with 12 K€ wages. A project signing: cheap for what they can become, so the margin is on your side. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
They start from 68 with a ceiling of 74 — that's +6 of headroom. Still at an improving age; with regular minutes they'll add points season by season. Potential doesn't rise on its own: it needs games, not the bench.
Their best position is CDM, though they can also play CM.
Their potential is 74. They start from 68, so they can rise +6 with minutes and development.
Their market value is around 2,1 M€, with 12 K€ wages.
Their reading of the game is 67 — weak for their position.
