Born in Belgium on 5 September 1997, Nordin Jackers, whilst being a grand age of 27, is currently servings as keeper for the lauded Club Brugge. Standing at a formidable 6ft 2in (1.89m) and weighing in at 12st 8lb (80kg), Jackers dons the jersey number 29 with pride. An individual's worth can be a touchy subject; however, Transfermarkt clocks his current market value at around a cool €900k. That's a sum north of £765k for the sterling-centric among us, a modest sum by today's football standards.
Shining a light on Jackers' professional journey, our gaze is pulled towards the year 2013, a time when Jackers joined Genk in Belgium's Pro League. Over the three seasons ranging from 2016 to 2019, Jackers saw only a handful of first-team appearances, clocking in at an unremarkable total of 7.
In September 2019, the landscape of Jackers' career saw a change as he was loaned to Waasland-Beveren in the Derde Klasse. His contributions there were considerably more noticeable, with 16 appearances in the 2019 - 2020 season and 28 in the 2020 - 2021 season. It seems Jackers was making a name for himself.
As August 2020 creeped round, Jackers was on the move again, transferring from Genk to Waasland-Beveren for an undisclosed fee. Again, this was a productive period, mirroring the 16-appreances of the previous year and finishing with a weighty 28 appearances.
Continuing on his journey, Jackers saw new grounds in July 2022, transferring to Oud-Heverlee Leuven in the Pro League for an undisclosed fee. A year later, he landed at Club Brugge on loan, which proved to be fruitful as he saw three first-team appearances on Belgium's grand stage in 2023 - 2024. Despite seeing no starts in the current season of 2024 - 2025, Jackers' move to Club Brugge was made permanent in July 2024 for a fee of around £130k.
The 2023 - 2024 season seemed to welcome him as a participant in the Pro League Play-Offs for Club Brugge with six starts, and the Conference League of that same year with four starts. As it stands, Jackers appears to be playing at the top tableau of his career, with two years and eight months left to run on his contract, set to expire on 30 June 2027.
