Jesé Rodríguez Ruiz (Spanish pronunciation:[xeˈseroˈðɾiɣeθˈrwiθ]; born 26 February 1993) is a Spanish professionalfootballer who plays aswinger orforward forMalaysia Super League clubJohor Darul Ta'zim.
An academy graduate ofLa Liga sideReal Madrid, Jesé debuted for the senior team in 2011, making 94 appearances across all competitions for the club and scoring eighteen goals. During his time in Madrid, which was disrupted by a serious knee injury in 2014, he won twoChampions League medals, as well as a title in each of La Liga, theFIFA Club World Cup and theCopa del Rey.
Jesé left the club in 2016 to joinLigue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain for a reported fee of €25 million, before returning to Spain six months later to join hometown club Las Palmas onloan for the remainder of the season. Jesé then joinedPremier League sideStoke City on loan for the2017–18 season, and laterReal Betis for the second half of the2018–19 La Liga campaign. After a brief loan spell withPrimeira Liga clubSporting CP, Jesé left PSG to rejoin Las Palmas on a permanent deal.
On the international stage, Jesé earned 36 caps at youth level for Spain fromunder-16 tounder-21 level, scoring sixteen goals overall. He was part of theSpain U19 side which won the2012 UEFA European Under-19 Championship and claimed the Golden Boot award for ending as the tournament's top goalscorer.[3]
Jesé is also amusician and goes by the stage name Jey M. He was previously part of a two-manreggaeton band which was formed in March 2014 and disbanded later that year.
Born inLas Palmas,Canary Islands, Jesé began his football career with local teamHuracán in 2005, whom he joined from amateur side El Pilar.[4] His form at youth level for the club saw him attract interest fromLa Liga sidesEspanyol,Mallorca andBarcelona, but he opted to sign forReal Madrid'syouth system in 2007, aged 14.[5][6] Jesé made his senior debut for theReal Madrid Castilla side on 16 January 2011 in a 5–0Segunda División B home win overUniversidad de Las Palmas. His performance throughout the match, which included an assist forDani Carvajal, drew early comparisons to fellow Real Madrid teammate and multipleBallon d'Or winner,Cristiano Ronaldo.[7] Jesé spent most of the season with Real Madrid'sJuvenil A team, however, and enjoyed a successful 2010–11 campaign which earned him a permanent promotion to the Castilla side.[8]
In July 2011, Jesé was selected by first-teammanagerJosé Mourinho for the club's pre-season tour of the United States and made his non-competitive debut for Real Madrid in afriendly againstLos Angeles Galaxy, coming on as a 64th minutesubstitute forJosé Callejón and scoring in a 5–1 win.[9] He returned to the Castilla for the start of the season and scored his first goal on 2 October 2011 againstLa Roda, finishing anassist fromÁlvaro Morata in a 4–2 away loss.[10] Having impressed with the reserve side during the first half of the season, Jesé was handed his senior debut on 12 December inthe first round of theCopa del Rey, replacing Ronaldo for the final fifteen minutes of a 2–0 away triumph overSD Ponferradina. After the match Jesé dedicated his debut to his family who had supported him in fulfilling his dream.[11][12] He made his firstLa Liga appearance on 24 March 2012, once again replacing Ronaldo for the last ten minutes of a 5–1 home win overReal Sociedad.[13] Aside from his two senior appearances, Jesé made 39 appearances and scored 10 goals for Castilla as the club was crownedSegunda División B champions.[14] The senior side were also crowned champions ofLa Liga, having claimed the title with two games to spare in early May.[15]
The following season, after criticism that players from the Castilla were not being given a fair chance, Mourinho stated that it was difficult to do so as the senior side played a different style to the reserves. He also highlighted the position Jesé was being played in as one that did not exist in the main squad.[16] Jesé's lack of opportunity prompted agent Ginés Carvajalto publicly state that they would need to study options for the player's future if he was not permanently promoted to the first team the following year with the guarantee he would receive more playing time.[17] In February 2013, in an interview withMarca, Jesé spoke out against his lack of senior game, stating that he was confident he was doing well enough to be granted an opportunity and, while he tried to learn as much as he could from Mourinho, he was a manager who surrounded himself with players who had already made their name.[18][19] Club chairmanFlorentino Pérez and B-side coachAlberto Toril both defended Jesé for his comments, although the latter advised that he should learn to control his emotions.[20][21]
In spite of his struggles in breaking into the first-team, Jesé continued to excel for the Castilla and on 2 June he broke the record for most goals scored in a single season for the reserve side, netting a solo goal in a 4–0 home win overAD Alcorcón to surpass the record of 21 goals set byEmilio Butragueño in1983–84.[22] Jesé's success drew praise from Pérez who described him as the jewel in the crown ofLos Blancos' academy.[23] He ended theseason with 22 goals to his name in 38 appearances, earning theZarra Trophy for the top Spanish goalscorer in the league, and on 18 June reiterated his desire to stay at Real Madrid in order to fight for a place in the first team.[24][25]
While at the2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup with Spain, Jesé was the subject of mass media speculation that he could be leaving Real Madrid following his lack of game-time with the first team the season before. The club's technical director,Miguel Pardeza, categorically stated on 13 July that the player would remain at the club, however, and Jesé extended his contract for a further four years later in the same month, signing a deal worth more than €1 million a year and which contained a €200 million release clause.[26][27]
Jesé was handed hisChampions League debut on 2 October 2013 by new club managerCarlo Ancelotti, coming on as an 81st-minute substitute forKarim Benzema in a 4–0group stage victory overF.C. Copenhagen.[28] He scored his first competitive goal for Real Madrid in his firstEl Clásico appearance on 26 October, netting ininjury-time from a Ronaldo assist in a 2–1 loss atBarcelona.[29] On 23 November, Jesé came on as a second-half substitute againstUD Almería and contributed with his first two assists for the first team in a 5–0 away win.[30] He enjoyed a fine run of form between the back end of 2013 and March 2014, where he netted a late winner atValencia, scored his firstCopa del Rey goal in a 2–0 win overCA Osasuna and netted in league encounters againstAthletic Bilbao,Villarreal andGetafe.[31][32][33][34] On 18 March, however, just two minutes into Real Madrid's Champions League's round-of-16 second leg game againstSchalke, Jesé suffered a complete tear of theanterior cruciate ligament in his right knee following a challenge fromSead Kolašinac and was sidelined for the remainder ofthe season.[35][36] He ended the season with 5 goals and 4 assists to his name in 18 league appearances, and 8 goals in 31 matches across all competitions as Real Madrid went on to lift the Copa Del Rey and Champions League trophies.[35][37][38]
After spending nine months on the sidelines, Jesé returned from injury for the second leg of Real Madrid's tie againstUE Cornellà in theCopa del Rey round of 32 on 2 December 2014, replacingSami Khedira after 57 minutes and scoring the last goal of a 9–1 aggregate victory.[39] On his injury, Jesé stated: "I had a very tough time, but I think that things in life happen for a reason. Maybe I had the injury because I needed to learn and become a more mature footballer."[40] Later that month he was included in the club's squad which won the2014 FIFA Club World Cup in Japan, making a substitute appearance in a 4–0 win overCruz Azul in the semi-finals.[41][42] He scored the first of his threeLa Liga goals forthe season on 4 February 2015 in a 2–1 victory overSevilla.[43] Jesé struggled to break back into the first team following his injury though, starting only 3 of his 23 appearances for the season, and by the end of the campaign it was reported that he had grown frustrated at the club and was looking to leave in the summer.[44][45]
Jesé opted to remain in Madrid for the2015–16 season as he sought to break into the first team under new club managerRafa Benítez. However, he found competition for places tough and was limited to just 1252 minutes of football across all competitions under Benítez and his successor,Zinedine Zidane. In spite of his lack of game time, Jesé still managed to contribute 6 goals and 8 assists for the season and was regularly used as a back-up in the team's triumphant2015–16 UEFA Champions League campaign.[46][47]
It would ultimately be Jesé's final season at the club as at the end of the season, with one year remaining on his contract, he agreed to sign for reigningLigue 1 championsParis Saint-Germain.[46] He made 63 La Liga appearances for Real Madrid during his ten-year stay at theSantiago Bernabeu, of which 49 were substitute appearances, and scored 13 goals.[48] In total, across all competitions, Jesé amassed 96 appearances and 18 goals for the club, departing with two Champions League titles and one apiece in La Liga, the Copa Del Rey and the Club World Cup to his name.[49]
On 8 August 2016, Jesé joined French sideParis Saint-Germain on a five-year deal for a reported transfer fee of €25 million.[50][51][48] The deal included an 'anti-Barcelona' clause which prevented PSG from selling Jesé to Real Madrid's fierce La Liga rivals Barcelona in the future.[52] He made his debut on 13 August, coming on as a substitute forHatem Ben Arfa in a 1–0 away win overBastia.[53] Jesé was ruled out for a short period soon thereafter as a result of him suffering fromappendicitis.[54] Following his return, he scored his first goal for the club on 19 November, netting from thepenalty-spot in a 2–0 win overNantes.[55] He made hisCoupe de la Ligue debut on 14 December and scored the third goal in a 3–1 win overLille.[56]
Jesé struggled to settle in Paris, however, and by the end of the year he had only started in one of his nine league appearances for the club.[57] His lack of form and infrequent game time, which totaled 358 minutes, prompted managerUnai Emery to suggest that he would be leaving the club during the Januarytransfer window in order to rediscover his form.[58][59]
On 31 January 2017, Jesé signed forLas Palmas on loan until the end of the season. Club chairman Miguel Ángel Ramírez revealed that he had taken a massive pay cut in order to join his hometown club.[60][61] The next day, he was presented in front of 9,000 fans at theEstadio de Gran Canaria, and pledged to do all he could to help the club qualify forEuropean football.[62] He debuted for the club on 6 February, coming on as a second-half substitute forVicente Gómez in a 1–0 loss away toGranada, and made his first start the following week in a loss toSevilla by the same scoreline.[63][64]
On 1 March, Jesé returned to theSantiago Bernabéu for the first time ahead of Las Palmas' La Liga encounter with Real Madrid. During the build-up to the match, he revealed that he owed a debt to Real Madrid for welcoming him at the club and blamed the cruciate ligament injury he suffered as the reason for him not becoming a star with them.[65] He also defended his previous criticism of former manager José Mourinho, stating that he has no regrets over his actions.[66] Jesé started in the match between the two sides which ultimately ended in a 3–3 draw.[67] He scored his first goals for the club four days later, netting a brace in a 5–2 league win overOsasuna. The result was Jesé's first win with Las Palmas, after the club failed to record a victory in its previous five matches following his arrival.[68] He ultimately made 16 appearances for the campaign, scoring three goals and registering anassist as the side dropped to end the season in fourteenth position.[69] Upon the conclusion of Jesé's loan agreement, Las Palmas elected not to attempt to sign him permanently, with his poor overall performance, high salary demands and off-field behaviour ultimately contributing to the club's decision.[70]
On 16 August 2017, Jesé joinedPremier League clubStoke City on loan for the2017–18 season.[71] Despite having only trained once with the team following his arrival, he made his debut on 19 August and scored the only goal in a 1–0 win overArsenal.[72][73][74] In December 2017, Jesé left the stadium early during Stoke's match againstSwansea City after managerMark Hughes made all of his substitutes and left him on the bench. He was subsequently disciplined by the club. In unrelated circumstances, he missed the next match againstTottenham Hotspur and a number of subsequent matches as he had been granted compassionate leave to visit his prematurely born son in the Canary Islands.[75][76]
He made his return on 10 February 2018 in Stoke's 1–1 draw withBrighton and in the final minutes of the match won apenalty after being fouled byDale Stephens. Teammate, and regular Stoke penalty-taker,Charlie Adam denied a visibly angered Jesé the opportunity the take the penalty but saw his effort saved by BrightongoalkeeperMathew Ryan.[77] New club managerPaul Lambert later denied that there was any rift between the players following the match.[78] The following month, Jesé was again afforded compassionate leave after his son underwent a second operation. However, he failed to return to training thereafter which sparked speculation that Stoke would look to terminate his loan contract.[79] His loan spell ended on 1 May when the club confirmed that he had been given unpaid compassionate leave until the end of the season.[80][81] He scored one goal in 13 appearances during his time with Stoke and the club ultimately suffered relegation from the Premier League.[82][83]
Upon his return to PSG, Jesé indicated his eagerness to fight for a spot in the team but he and teammateGonçalo Guedes were later excluded from new managerThomas Tuchel's pre-season tour of Asia.[84] He continued to be excluded as the season commenced and was also made to train alone by Tuchel alongsideJean-Christophe Bahebeck.[85] At the turn of the year, with Jesé having not played a single match for the season, it was revealed that he had lost 7 kg after appointing a personal trainer as he looked to reintegrate himself into the team.[86] He then made his first, and only appearance for the club for the season on 23 January 2019, coming on as a last minute substitute in aCoupe de France win overStrasbourg.[87]
On 29 January, Jesé signed forBetis on loan until the end of the season where he reunited with former Las Palmas manager,Quique Setién.[88][89] He made his debut for the club on 7 February, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–2 Copa del Rey draw withValencia.[90] The following week, he made hisEuropa League debut as a second-half substitute and assistedDiego Lainez for an injury-time equalizer in a 3–3 draw withRennes.[91] His first goal followed on 10 March, when he scored the only goal in a 1–0 league win overCelta Vigo.[92] He ultimately scored twice in eighteen appearances but Betis elected not to sign him permanently at the end of the season.[93]
On 2 September 2019, Jesé joined Portuguese clubSporting CP on loan for the2019–20 season.[94] He scored his first goal for the club towards the end of the following month, opening the scoring in a 3–1 win overVitória de Guimarães.[95]
At the end of the2019–20 season, Jesé received aLigue 1 medal for his contributions at PSG, where he played one minute the whole season in an away match againstMetz.[96]
Jesé did not complete a permanent transfer to Sporting CP after the end of his loan deal; instead, he headed back to PSG. On 10 September 2020, Jesé made his return to play for the Parisian club in a 1–0 loss toLens.[97] He made his final appearance for PSG as a substitute in a 4–0 win againstNîmes on 16 October.[98]
On 6 December, Paris Saint-Germain announced the termination of his contract by mutual agreement.[99]
On 1 February 2021, Jesé returned toLas Palmas for the remainder of the season.[100] He put up a 'man of the match' performance where he scored a goal and also assisted in the match thrashingCD Lugo 6–1 on 1 April.
Jesé joined TurkishSüper Lig clubAnkaragücü on 4 August 2022, signing a one-year deal with the club.[101] He made his competitive debut four days later, coming on as a substitute forGiorgi Beridze in the 61st minute of a 0–0 home draw againstKonyaspor.[102] On 8 November, Jesé scored a brace during the2022–23 Turkish Cup in a 6–2 win overAmed Sportif. However, his contract was terminated early by mutual consent on 13 January 2023.[103]
On 10 February 2023, Jesé joinedSerie A clubSampdoria on a contract until the end of the season, with the option of a further year.[104] He scored his first goal for the Italian side on 16 April, in a 1–1league draw againstLecce.[105]
On 6 September 2023, Jesé joinedCampeonato Brasileiro Série A clubCoritiba on afree transfer, signing a contract until the end of the year.[106] He scored his first goal for the club in a 2–1 lost againstFluminense on 26 November.
After 10 months without a club, Jesé joinedMalaysia Super League clubJohor Darul Ta'zim on 5 October 2024.[107][108][109] He make his club debut on 22 October in the2024–25 AFC Champions League Elite against Korean clubGwangju. Jesé then made hisleague debut on 1 November in a 4–0 away win againstNegeri Sembilan. On 30 November, he scored his first goal for the club during the2024–25 Malaysia Cup round of 16 tie againstKuala Lumpur Rovers.[110] On 5 February 2025, he scored his first league goal by scoring the third goal in a 4–0 home win againstPDRM. On 18 February, Jesé then scored his first AFC Champions League Elite goal in the stoppage time against Korean clubPohang Steelers which his club went on to win 5–2 thus qualifying to the round of 16.
Jesé is a formerSpanish youth international, having represented the nation at all levels from theunder-16s to theunder-21s between 2009 and 2014.[111]
In 2010, he traveled to Liechtenstein with theSpain under-17 side for the2010 UEFA European Football Championship in which Spain ended as runners-up toEngland. Jesé scored one goal at the tournament, netting the opener in Spain's 3–1 semi-final win overTurkey.[112][113][114] Two years later, Jesé netted five goals during Spain's victorious2012 European Under-19 Championship campaign inEstonia, including ahat trick againstPortugal and the winning goal againstGreece in the final. Jesé also received the Golden Boot award for ending as the competition's top goalscorer.[115][116] The following year, Jesé scored a further five goals and assisted another for theSpain under-20 team at the2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup inTurkey. Spain were ultimately eliminated at hands ofUruguay in the quarter-finals but the nation's early exit from the competition did not prevent Jesé from earning the Bronze Boot award for ending as the tournament's third top goalscorer.[117] His form at the tournament drew praise from Spanish journalistGuillem Balagué who claimed he was better than Real Madrid's newworld-record signingGareth Bale was at the same age.[118]
On 6 February 2014, although he was still eligible to play forthe under-21s,Spain managerVicente del Bosque revealed that Jesé was in his plans ahead of the2014 FIFA World Cup inBrazil.[119] However, his chances of taking part at the tournament were ended in March when he ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament while playing for Real Madrid, with Del Bosque describing the situation as "a blow".[120] Due to his eight-month spell on the sidelines, Jesé also missed Spain'squalification play-off againstSerbia for the2015 European U-21 Championship. Spain ultimately lost the match 2–1 and thereby also failed to qualify for the2016 Summer Olympics.[121]
Jesé is able to play across the front line, operating either as anattacking midfielder,second striker orcentre-forward, or in his favoured position out on thewing.[122][123] During his time at the Castilla, Jesé was often deployed in afalse 9 role in the team's 4–3–3 formation, and regularly switched flanks due to his ability to use both feet.[124][125] In 2013, in his role as the club's sporting director at the time, Zinedine Zidane declared himself an admirer of Jesé's direct style of football and goal scoring ability.[126] Following Jesé's promotion to Real Madrid's first team in 2013, manager Carlo Ancelotti played him in a winger position, where he could cut inside from the wing both with the ball and without, to create chances and score goals.[127] His progression with Real Madrid's senior side often saw him compared to teammate Cristiano Ronaldo due to the similarities in their style as well as Jesé's technical ability, close control, pace and dribbling abilities. Jesé welcomed the comparison to Ronaldo and in a 2013 interview withMarca named thePortuguese as his favourite player, ahead ofBrazilian namesake,Ronaldo, andRonaldinho.[128][129]
Jesé was born to Pascual Rodríguez, a pharmacy worker, and María Ruiz. When he joined Real Madrid at the age of 14, he made a promise to his father that he would help him retire by pursuing a career in football. The day after he signed his first professional contract with Real Madrid, Jesé's father was able to retire from the pharmacy at which he worked. He has the names of his parents tattooed on the back of his hands and in 2014 bought them a house inGran Canaria.[130]
Jesé has four sons, Jesé Jr. (born 2012), Neizan (born 2016), Nyan (born 2017), Kenai (born 2019) and one daughter, Aylén (2020).[131] He learned of the birth of his second son over social media platformInstagram after the mother of the child claimed that he was the father in a post in November 2016. ADNA test was conducted soon after which confirmed Jesé to be the father.[132][133] Jesé's third son, Nyan was born prematurely in 2017 and suffered from a number of medical conditions from birth. The following year, he went through a public and acrimonious breakup with Nyan's mother, Aurah Ruiz, which culminated in Ruiz taking Jesé to court where she accused him of neglecting his duties as a father.[134][135] He responded with a counter-suit against Ruiz for slander in which he allegedly asked that she pay "one Euro and be sentenced to three to five years in prison."[136]
In 2014, just a week after suffering a cruciate ligament injury with Real Madrid, Jesé had to be rescued when a suspected gas explosion set fire to the luxury apartment block in which he was staying at the time.[137]
Aside from football, Jesé is also a musician and formed a Spanishreggaeton band called Big Flow with close friend DJ Nuno in March 2014. Together, the pair released two singles onYouTube, the first of which was titled La Mano Arriba. In November the same year, the group disbanded with Jesé announcing he would be pursuing a solo career in 2015 under the name 'Jey M.'[138][139][140] In 2018, he released a single titledLa Prueba – The Proof - from which he sought to donate proceeds for research towards diseases suchcongenital hyperinsulinism.[141]
In December 2020, Jesé ended his contract early with Paris Saint-Germain. He had reportedly brokenCOVID-19 regulations while being on a trip to theCanary Islands, and was involved in a sex scandal having supposedly cheated on his partner with her friend Rocio Amar earlier in the year. Both events contributed to PSG terminating his contract.[142]
