Jaime Ayoví's Club Football Journey
Jaime Ayoví started his football career at a smaller club called Paladín "S". In 2006, his cousin, Walter Ayoví, who was also a footballer, suggested he try out for Emelec. Jaime impressed the team and signed a four-year contract when he was just 18 years old.
Even though he is tall, Jaime often played as an open forward or a winger. He was very skilled with the ball and fast. He liked to run to the sides of the field where there was more space to move.
Playing for Manta and Emelec's Success
In 2009, Jaime was loaned to Manta to get more playing time and experience. He played well, scoring 7 goals in 32 matches in the Ecuadorian league.
The next season, Emelec's new manager, Jorge Sampaoli, saw Jaime's talent. Sampaoli asked for Jaime to stay with the team in 2010. Jaime quickly became the first-choice forward. He scored many important goals, helping Emelec win the first part of the 2010 Ecuadorian tournament. This led them to the final match in December 2010.
Moving to Mexican Football: Toluca and Pachuca
After the 2010 season, Jaime joined the Mexican team Toluca in 2011. He scored his first goal in his second game. He continued to score important goals for Toluca, including an impressive header against Santos Laguna.

Time with Club Tijuana and LDU Quito
After recovering from his injury, Jaime signed with the Mexican club Xolos de Tijuana. However, he was immediately loaned to the Ecuadorian team LDU Quito for a full season to regain his form.
