Jakob Hjorth

Jakob Hjorth (born 19 September 1994) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a centre-back.

Hjorth moved to Jammerbugt FC from Lindholm IF in January 2015, where head coach Bo Zinck described him as "strong, but also technically capable".

[4] He subsequently signed a contract extension keeping him at the club until 2021, after having made 24 league appearances that season.

In his third appearance at the highest level, Hjorth suffered a concussion against Nordsjælland, which sidelined him for several months.

[8] After Vendsyssel relegated after only one season at the highest level, Hjorth started playing more, and headed home the equalising 1–1 goal against Fredericia on 18 October 2020, after an assist by Mikkel Wohlgemuth, who himself had been sidelined by injury for more than a year.
