Jade Boho Sayo (born 30 August 1986), commonly known as Jade, is a Spanish-born Equatorial Guinean professional footballer who plays as a striker for Reading of England's FA WSL. She is also a member of the Equatorial Guinea national team.

Club career

Spain

Jade previously played for AD Torrejón CF. and Rayo Vallecano, winning three championships and one national cup and playing the UEFA Champions League with the latter.

England

In summer 2015 Jade signed for Bristol Academy who were winless and at the bottom of the FA WSL table. Despite long journeys for national team duty in Africa, she proved a prolific goalscorer and was hailed as "inspirational" by the team's coach. When Bristol were relegated, Jade left the club to sign for Reading ahead of the 2016 FA WSL season.

International career

Jade was born and raised in Spain, but her father is from Equatorial Guinea, so she was eligible to represent either country. She played in the Spanish team that won the 2004 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, scoring the first goal of the final match against Germany.

She has been a member of the Equatoguinean senior team since 2010. Because Jade competed for Spain in the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship, scoring two goals in the second match, she had been registered as a Spanish player in FIFA's database. The Equatoguinean footbal federation did not complete the process of changing her FIFA nationality in a timely manner. So in June 2011, when Jade was about to participate in the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, FIFA detected the irregularity and suspended her for two months both in her club and her national team, which was removed from qualifying for the 2012 Summer Olympics as a result. In September 2011 she announced she would not play for Equatorial Guinea anymore. However, Jade reversed her decision a year later, to go to Malabo for a friendly match against the DR Congo in June 2012. She then won the African Championship that year.
