Club Career

Early career

Born in Sao Jorge de Arroios, Lisbon, Jair never knew his parents (who were Cape Verdian) and was adopted by a Spanish family, moving to Villanueva de la Serena, Badajoz, Extremadura afterwards. A UD La Cruz Villanovense youth graduate, he made his debut as a senior with CD Hernan Cortes in 2008, on loan from CF Villanovense.

Jair appeared rarely for Villanovense in 2010–11, and was loaned to CD Miajadas in Tercera Division in the 2011 summer. He remained with the side for two years, being brought back to his parent club in July 2013 after it was relegated from Segunda Division B.

Jair was a regular starter during the 2013–14 campaign, as the club returned to the third level at first attempt. On 6 July 2015 he signed for Levante UD, being assigned to the reserves also in the third division.
