Fulham (2019-present)
Jay signed for Fulham on 1 August 2019 from Exeter City, and joined up with the U18 squad.

He got off to a fantastic start to his Fulham career, bagging plenty of goals for the academy, and earned himself a surprise call up to the first team squad on 4 January 2020. He then came off the bench the same day to make his professional debut during a 2-1 win over Aston Villa at Craven Cottage.

Unfortunately, Jay picked up an ankle injury early in the the 2020-21 season which required surgery and was out of action for four months. He returned to match action on 23 January 2021, coming off of the bench during an U18 match against Brighton, in which he scored minutes after he came on.

He made his first start in the first team in a 2-0 win at Birmingham City in the EFL Cup on 24 August 2021, in which he scored the opening goal with a fantastic strike to the top corner from the edge of the box. A few months later, Jay suffered a bad knee injury which required surgery in November 2021.
