Luca Jaquez

Luca Jaquez of Stuttgart was born in Luzern, Switzerland on 2 June 2003 (age 23).

Luca Jaquez, born on 2 June 2003 (age 23), is a Swiss central defender with Stuttgart. His market value is around £8.5m, according to Transfermarkt.

His career to this point is shaped mainly by Luzern. Across four seasons there, he made 60 league appearances and scored three league goals, establishing himself properly rather than merely passing through. His most productive league campaign came in 2024–25, when he scored three times in 19 appearances.

Jaquez has since moved into the Stuttgart set-up, where he wears squad number 14. In 2026–27 he made two league appearances for Stuttgart, along with one league appearance for Stuttgart II, which gives a fair sense of a player still working his way into a stronger environment.

He has also been involved with Switzerland this season, making two World Cup appearances and one appearance in European World Cup qualifying. For now, his senior career remains built on the work done at Luzern, with Stuttgart the next test.
