Jacob Hödl, born on 31 January 2007 (age 19), is an Austrian centre midfielder with Sturm Graz. His senior path has been built close to home rather than through the usual noise, with his first clear production coming at Sturm Graz II in 2024–25, when he scored three goals in 20 league appearances.
By 2025–26, Hödl had become a regular first-team presence for Sturm Graz. He made 28 Bundesliga appearances and scored two league goals, while also featuring once in Champions League qualifying and seven times in the Europa League. Across all competitions for the season, he reached 36 appearances and two goals.
Still in the early part of his career, Hödl’s profile is straightforward: an Austrian midfielder who has moved from useful second-team output into consistent senior minutes at Sturm Graz. His current relevance comes from that regular involvement, not from any need to dress him up as more than he is.
