At the start of the second half of the league season 1984/1985 , the 21-year-old Jacob made his debut in the goalless draw of the Wismut-Elf at home against FC Karl-Marx-Stadt and fought for a regular place for the remaining games in the spring. The team of Hans-Ulrich Thomale finished in 4th place and thus qualified for the first time in a quarter of a century for the European Cup . In the following season the midfielder was only used three times in the first team and was not on the ball when he was eliminated in the first round of the 1985/86 UEFA Cup against Dnieper Dnepropetrovsk .

In the top division of GDR football he played a total of 46 games until his return to BSG Wismut Gera in the summer of 1989, in which he scored seven hits.
