Hi there. Just a site visitor like yourself. I’m from Ireland and I’m pretty sure that we don’t have broad faced sac spiders (Trachelidae) in this part of Europe. This must be a very young Dysdera crocata – the woodlouse hunter spider. It’s got a very distinctive face only a mother could love. The eyes are very distinctive too. There are 6 in a semi circle just above its jaws. It’s interesting to see one so young. 🙂
