Jacob Umaga

A creative playmaker comfortable at either fly-half or fullback, Jacob Umaga is known for his attacking flair, sharp vision and reliable boot. Born on 8 July 1998, he came through the Wasps academy and won an England Under-20 cap before going on to represent Samoa at international level. Now with Benetton Treviso in the United Rugby Championship, he brings that varied experience to bear as a key organiser in the Italian club's backline. Umaga's role is to direct the attack, bring others into play and offer a strategic kicking option that helps his side control territory and tempo. His goal-kicking adds another dimension, giving Benetton a dependable points source from the tee. Equally at home pulling the strings at ten or operating with more freedom at the back, he provides both creativity and tactical control, qualities that lend real depth to his team's attacking game. With a pedigree that spans English age-grade rugby and the international stage with Samoa, Umaga is a seasoned operator capable of shaping matches.
