Jacob Ramsey

Jacob Ramsey of Newcastle United was born in Birmingham, England on 28 May 2001 (age 25).

Jacob Ramsey, born on 28 May 2001 (age 25), is an English central midfielder now with Newcastle United, where he wears squad number 41. His current market value is around £34m, according to Transfermarkt.

Ramsey’s career has been shaped overwhelmingly by Aston Villa. The early loan football formed part of his development, but Villa is where he became a first-team player of substance: 137 league appearances and 14 league goals across six seasons is not a passing connection.

His most productive league campaign came in 2021-22, when he scored six goals in 34 appearances for Villa. That season gave him a more visible role in a side where he had grown from academy prospect into a regular Premier League midfielder, rather than another tidy graduate praised for merely being local.

At Newcastle in 2026-27, Ramsey has made 10 appearances in all competitions and scored one goal. That includes five Premier League appearances, two in the FA Cup and three in the League Cup.

Ramsey’s career to this point is a Villa-heavy one with a newer Newcastle chapter still being written. He remains an established English midfielder, with his best senior work so far done in claret and blue.
