Ruled out against Frankfurt Jakic (undisclosed) is ruled out for Sunday's clash against Frankfurt, according to coach Manuel Baum. "The same goes for Jakic compared to last weekend."

Impact Jakic finished last season with two goals and one assist across 26 appearances, including 18 starts, and had also served a one match suspension late in the campaign after accumulating five yellow cards. His absence is a setback to monitor, and further clarity on the reason should emerge as Augsburg continues preparing for the match.

Impact Jakic had been forced to sit out the season finale against Union Berlin after accumulating five yellow cards, ending the campaign with two goals and one assist across 26 appearances (18 starts). The Croatian international will now shift his focus entirely to the World Cup this summer before returning to Augsburg ahead of the 2026/27 season, with the club looking forward to having him back in the fold once the tournament concludes.

Back available Jakic (knock) trained fully this week and was not mentioned in the injury report, making him an option for Friday's clash against Hoffenheim, according to coach Manuel Baum.

Impact Jakic is back available for Friday's clash against Hoffenheim after training this week, having missed the last match due to a knock. The midfielder has started five of his last six appearances, so his return could provide a boost, though the coach could again opt to deploy Fabian Rieder in a holding midfield role.

APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out with knock Jakic (knock) is unavailable for Saturday's clash against Hamburger after picking up a knock during his return from international duty, according to the club.

Impact Jakic's absence is an untimely blow for Freiburg heading into the weekend, with Fabian Rieder expected to drop deeper into the midfield to cover his role against Hamburger. No specific timeline has been given beyond the immediate fixture, but the club's language suggests the issue is minor and next Friday's clash against Hoffenheim looks like a realistic return target.

Trains with team Jakic (calf) is back in team training ahead of Saturday's match against Leipzig, according to his club.

Impact Jakic is looking to only have been dealt a minor injury against Koln over the weekend, as the defender is already back in training with his teammates.

MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE

Subs off with injury Friday Jakic left the field after suffering an apparent thigh discomfort during Friday's match versus Koln.

Impact Jakic could be dealing with a muscular problem, putting his participation in doubt for upcoming games.

Returns to bench Jakic (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Mainz.

Impact Jakic is named on the bench for Saturday's match against Mainz after missing the previous two matches due to a calf injury.

Remains out Saturday Jakic (calf) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against St. Pauli.

Impact Jakic remains unavailable for Saturday's match against St. Pauli as his recovery is not far enough along to pass final testing. The midfielder had earned five starts in the club's past six games prior to the setback, therefore his absence impacts the starting XI, with Elvis Rexhbecaj serving in the midfield again with Jakic left out.

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Jakic is still recovering and is now a late call for Saturday, with the midfielder needing some testing ahead of the match. This comes after he earned five starts in their past six games, so the club will hope for his availability. However, if he is left out again, Elvis Rexhbecaj is likely to serve in the midfield in his spot.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Not an option Saturday Jakic (calf) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Bayern.

Impact Jakic is not an option for Saturday as he continues to deal with a calf injury suffered from a fall down the stairs at halftime of the last match. He is unable to pass late testing and remains sidelined. Elvis Rexhbecaj is expected to see increased playing time until he returns to full fitness.

JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Remains questionable Jakic (calf) is questionable for Saturday's match against Bayern Munich, according to his club.

Impact Jakic is still dealing with his calf injury after taking a spill down the stairs at halftime of the last match and is looking to be a late call, needing to pass some testing to be an option. This will be something to watch after he started in the past two games, with Elvis Rexhbecaj as a possible replacement in the midfield.

Impact Jakic was withdrawn at halftime of Sunday's 2-2 draw against Freiburg after sustaining a calf strain following a fall on the stairs during the break. The midfielder has yet to return to full team training this week, casting doubt over his availability for Saturday's matchup against Bayern. Jakic has been a consistent presence in Augsburg's starting lineup in recent matches, meaning his potential absence would need to be covered, with Elvis Rexhbecaj the leading candidate to come into the starting XI.

JANUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Off at halftime Jakic was forced off at halftime during Sunday's 2-2 draw with Freiburg.

Impact Jakic pulled a muscle while heading into the locker room at halftime and was replaced for the second half by Elvis Rexhbecaj. Jakic's status for Saturday's trip to Bayern is in doubt.

JANUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Available on Sunday Jakic (ankle) is a bench option for Sunday's game versus Monchengladbach.

Impact jakic has passed a final fitness test and will avoid missing time but won't start as he has done in the previous three matches, putting up six tackles (four won), three chances created and three shots (one on target). Instead, Anton Kade (ankle) is back in the XI.

JANUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Late call to face Gladbach Jakic (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's match against Galdbach, according to manager Manuel Baum.

Impact Jakic is going to need some testing ahead of Sunday's match, as the defender has been struggling with an ankle injury that will leave him as a late call. That said, even if he is an option, the midfielder appears to be unable to play the full 90, potentially serving off the bench. He started in their past three games, so this would force a change, with Elvis Rexhbecaj as a possible replacement.

JANUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers ankle issue Jakic suffered an ankle issue and was forced off in the 56th minute of Saturday's 0-0 draw against Bremen, coach Manuel Baum said in a press conference. "Jakic stepped on his oppon...

Impact Jakic stepped on the foot of one of his opponent and twisted his ankle, forcing him off before the hour-mark. The midfielder contributed decently in the game, setting a new season high with three chances created and adding three tackles and two clearances to his shift. Jakic will have several weeks to recover from the issue and if he had to miss some time, it would be a blow since he has been a regular starter for Ausgburg this season, with Elvis Rexhbecaj likely getting a larger role in his spot if he is out.

DECEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Two shots in loss Jakic had two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Impact Jakic was back in the starting XI against his former club and took a pair of shots. Neither of those shots were particularly threatening though and the defensive midfielder largely struggled to impact the match. Jakic remains a limited offensive option moving forward so he has little upside in most domestic matches.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

On bench against Hoffenheim Jakic (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim.

Impact Jakic missed the last match against Hamburger because of knee joint problems but managed to train fully with the group this week. He returns to action on Saturday but only as a bench option against Hoffenheim, reflecting the fact that he remained an unused substitute in the two games before his injury. That said, his presence provides depth but does not alter the hierarchy in midfield.

NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Should be back against Hoffenheim Jakic (knee) was able to train again and should be an option for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim, coach Sandro Wagner said in the press conference. "Kristijan was able to train...

Impact Jakic missed the last game against Hamburger due to knee joint problems but was able to train fully with the team this week which should make him an option for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim. That said, he remained an unused substitute in the two games prior to his injury, suggesting he lost his starting role. His return therefore will not affect the starting XI.
