Jaime Javier Ayoví Corozo (born February 21, 1988 in Eloy Alfaro, Esmeraldas) is an Ecuadorian footballer. He currently plays for Tijuana in the Liga MX.

Club career

Emelec

Ayoví started out at lower division club Paladín "S". In 2006, his cousin Walter Ayoví recommended him to try out at Emelec. He did and was impressive enough to be signed on a 4 year deal when he was only 18 years old.

Despite his height and size he started out playing as an open forward, or a winger and not as a center forward, because he is very skilled with the ball and very fast and he did not like to have to go down the middle but preferred to run to the sides where there was more space to move.

On 2009 he was loaned to first division club Manta to gain more minutes and experience. He did well playing in 32 matches of the Ecuadorian league and scoring 7 goals, despite this Emelec management were going to loan him again for the next season, but newly signed manager Jorge Sampaoli saw videos of Ayoví and requested him to stay in the 2010 squad, as a first substitution for the Argentinian striker Hernan Peirone.

As the 2010 season started it was becoming clear that Ayoví would have plenty more chances than expected and soon he became Sampaoli's first choice for the attack leaving Peirone in the bench. Ayoví did not disappoint and quickly started scoring important goals for his team, and was absolutely key to Emelec winning the first stage of the 2010 Ecuadorian tournament and reaching the final to be played in December 2010.

Toluca

2011

After the 2010 Ecuadorian season ended Jaime agree to join Mexican team Toluca on a three year deal.[1] He scored his first goal in his second appearance against Chiapas. On February 13 he scored his second in an emphatic 5–0 away win against Querétaro. He scored in a 3–2 home loss against Necaxa. On February 13, Ayovi scored an impressive header against Santos Laguna, in just under a minute of game time. Toluca won 3–1 at home turf. His final goal with Toluca came on April 3, and impressive solo effort, to draw the game against Monterrey 1–1.

Pachuca

2011–12 season

After only half a season, Ayovi impressed the Pachuca manager, which sought to sign him for the team, Pachuca. His first goal for Pachuca was on June 31, in a 2–2 away draw against Puebla FC. He would only score 3 more goals for the rest of the Apertura season against Cruz Azul, Estudiantes Tecos and Atlante FC. The 2012 Clausura would prove to be the same, scoring only 4 goals against Puebla, Cruz Azul, Querétaro and Chivas de Guadalajara. Due to his form with Pachuca, he was loaned to Saudi Arabian Premier League club Al Nassr.

Loan to Al Nassr FC

2012–13 season

Jaime Ayovi was loaned to Al Nassr FC for undisclosed fee which may lead up to the end of the Saudi Premier League season. On September 29, Ayovi scored his first goal with Al Nassr, winning 3–1 against Al Wahda. He would go on to score 7 more goals for Al Nassr, including 2 doubles against Al Faisaly and Al Taawon, winning 2–1 and 3–2. His Saudi Premier League season was cut short when he was injured and was side-lined for 8 months. He finished his season with Al Nassr with 8 goals in 15 matches.
