    Jai Elorm Semenyo, the younger brother of Black Stars forward Antoine Semenyo, had different dreams growing up.

    Jai, who currently plays for the National League club Eastleigh in England, revealed that he initially wanted to become a boxer, unlike Antoine, who was solely focused on football.

    “For Antoine, yes. But for me, I wanted to do boxing,” he told Sky Sports, without explaining why he abandoned his dream to pursue a football career instead.

    Born on July 13, 2003, Jai began his football career with Cardiff City’s youth team. He is a defender who plays as a right-back.

    He made his professional debut for Cardiff in a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool in the FA Cup on February 6, 2022.

    Jai made two appearances for the club before securing a move to the National League. His second appearance came in an English League Cup (EFL Cup) match against Portsmouth, where Cardiff lost 3-0. He was subbed on in the second half.

    In August 2024, Jai Semenyo joined National League side Eastleigh after a successful trial. He has played 19 matches this season, scoring one goal.

    Speaking with Sky Sports, Antoine shared how he has supported Jai through the challenges of his early career.

    “Yes, we have a lot of talks at home. It’s just about motivation, keeping your head down and working hard. As a player, you go through tough moments. You might be in the team, you might not be in the team, and that’s something he has been going through this season. So it’s just about giving him words of affirmation and keeping him motivated.”

    In 2023, Jai Elorm Semenyo expressed his desire to play for Ghana in his international career.

    “[At the] international level, I would love to play for Ghana. My parents are from Ghana [and] Ghana has been the way through my whole life,” the youngster said as quoted by SportsWorldGhana.
