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.
His career is still shaped mainly by Aston Villa. Across six seasons there, Ramsey made 137 league appearances and scored 14 league goals, establishing himself as a regular Premier League midfielder rather than just another academy prospect passing through. The early loan football helped harden the edges a bit before he settled into Villa’s first team.
His strongest league campaign came in 2021-22, when he scored six goals in 34 appearances for Villa. That season gave a clearer sense of what he could offer: ball-carrying from midfield, timing into the box, and enough end product to be more than tidy decoration.
At Newcastle United in 2026-27, Ramsey has made seven appearances in all competitions and scored once. That includes three Premier League appearances with one goal, along with two outings in the FA Cup and two in the League Cup.
Ramsey’s career to this point is a Villa-heavy one, with Newcastle the next stage rather than the main chapter so far. He remains an established Premier League midfielder with his best work still associated with Birmingham rather than Tyneside.
