Hammers boss Avram Grant, whose side have shipped nine goals in their opening three Barclays Premier League games, had made recruiting a new right-back a priority. Jacobsen began his career at Danish side Odense and and played for Hamburg, FC Copenhagen and Nurnberg before joining Everton two years ago. His appearances for the Toffees were limited by a shoulder injury and he was allowed to leave after one season.
