Jacob Devaney, born 11 June 2007 (age 19), is a Republic of Ireland defensive midfielder now with Hibernian. His senior career has been shaped chiefly by St Mirren, where he made 13 league appearances in the 2025–26 season.
That St Mirren spell remains the main body of his first-team football. Devaney’s role was not a headline one, but it gave him a proper run of senior minutes at a young age, which is usually the point at that stage of a career.
At Hibernian in 2026–27, he has made three Scottish Cup appearances and scored once. His market value is around £213,000, according to Transfermarkt.
So far, Devaney’s career is a short one with St Mirren providing the substance and Hibernian the next step.
