Kilian Jakob turned professional at TSV 1860 Munich before leaving the club. Now the defender is returning.

TSV 1860 Munich have brought back defender Kilian Jakob. As the third-division club announced, the 27-year-old will join on a free transfer from league rivals FC Erzgebirge Aue in the summer.

Jakob joined the "Lions" youth team in 2010 and later turned professional there. In the summer of 2017, the left-footed player moved to FC Augsburg. Jakob has been under contract at Aue since January 2023.

"We're getting a player with great defensive quality who can also play in attack and create goals. This flexibility gives us more tactical options," explained managing director Christian Werner.
