Adam Jakubech (born 2 January 1997) is a Slovak professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for the Slovak First Football League team MFK Zemplín Michalovce.

Club career

Spartak Trnava

Jakubech signed for Spartak Trnava in January 2015.

Lille

Jakubech transferred to OSC Lille of France in July 2017. He did not make a Ligue 1 appearance for Lille in the 2017–18 season. Jakubech spent two sessions at Lille on loan at K.V. Kortrijk. In 2022, Jakubech's club profile read that he is second or third choice goalkeeper but had continuously provided professionalism to the club. At the end of the 2024 session, he was released as free agent after his contract at Lille expired.

Zemplín Michalovce

After spending half a year as without a club, Jakubech signed a new contract with Slovak First Football League outfit Zemplín Michalovce in January 2025. In his first season for his new club, he would only play in one game, a 5–4 loss against league new comers KFC Komárno.

International career

Jakubech was first called up for Slovakia's two unofficial friendly fixtures in Abu Dhabi, in January 2017 against Uganda and Sweden. He made his debut against Uganda, when he substituted Michal Šulla in the 46th minute, conceding a goal in 77th minute by Geofrey Massa after a corner kick, which marked the 1–3 defeat. Jakubech did not appear in the 0–6 loss against Sweden later that week.

He was next called up to the squad in October 2018, when Matúš Kozáčik had to withdraw due to an illness. He was called up to the squad, although he was set to prepare with the U21 for UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification fixtures against Estonia and Northern Ireland, joining Martin Dúbravka and Michal Šulla.
