Club Career

Spartak Trnava

Jakubech signed for Spartak Trnava in January 2015. In 2015, he usually played in II. liga for the reserves squad, being featured in a total of 17 games. In the second to last round of the 2014–15 season, he managed to debut for Spartak's senior team, when he played against Dukla Banska Bystrica on 23 May 2015 under Juraj Jarabek. Spartak won the home fixture at Stadion Antona Malatinskeho 3–1. Jakubech lost the clean sheet by a 90th minute goal from Jozef Rejdovian.

In the two subsequent seasons he recorded 47 starts for Spartak in the Fortuna liga. By the 2016–17 season, Jakubech was Spartak's uncontested preferred goalkeeper.

During the summer of 2017, it was announced that Lille had shown interest in Jakubech. In the 2017–18 season, he was only featured in a first round match against Zemplin Michalovce. Spartak won the game 1–0, thanks to an early goal by Stefan Pekar. The squad of Serbian-born British coach Nestor El Maestro went on to win Spartak's first title in 45 years that season, with Martin Vantruba replacing Jakubech and winning himself a transfer to Slavia Prague after the season.

Lille

Jakubech's transfer to OSC Lille was announced in late July 2017. He spent the 2017–18 season in Lille's lower division reserves squad.

However for the 2018–19 season, Jakubech was, for the most of the games, benched as the replacement keeper for Mike Maignan. Nonetheless, he did not make a competitive appearance for the first time. Despite this fact, he was cited, in October 2018, as happy, in Lille, acknowledging the benefits the training process has on his career and performance.
