About
Jacob Greaves is an English defender who plays for Ipswich Town. A left-sided centre-back, he came up through the academy at Hull City, his boyhood club, and made his senior debut in 2020 before establishing himself as a dependable presence across more than 150 league appearances for the Tigers. His composure on the ball and athleticism marked him out in the Championship, where he was named Hull’s Player of the Season and earned a place in the EFL Championship team of the season. Those displays prompted Ipswich Town to sign him in July 2024, with the deal reported at around £18 million, as the club returned to the Premier League. Greaves is contracted at Portman Road until June 2029, having put pen to a five-year agreement on his arrival, and is reported to earn around £25,000 per week.
