In summer 2015 Jade signed for Bristol Academy who were winless and at the bottom of the FA WSL table. Despite making long journeys for national team duty in Africa, she proved a prolific goalscorer and was hailed as "inspirational" by the team's coach.{{cite news|last1=Aloia|first1=Andrew|title=Willie Kirk: Jade Boho Sayo can inspire Bristol Academy survival|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33798485|access-date=25 January 2016|publisher=BBC Sport|date=6 August 2015}} When Bristol were relegated, Jade left the club to sign for Reading ahead of the 2016 FA WSL season{{cite news|title=Jade Boho-Sayo: Reading sign Bristol City Women forward|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/35264753|access-date=25 January 2016|publisher=BBC Sport|date=8 January 2016}} but her stay was short after making the decision to return to Madrid. Her last appearance for the club was on 30 October against Chelsea.
International career

Jade was born and raised in Spain, but her mother is from Equatorial Guinea, so she was eligible to represent either country. She played in the Spanish team that won the 2004 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, scoring the first goal of the final match against Germany.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3P7XoZxlUE] Goals of the 2004 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship's final match

Jade has been a member of the Equatoguinean senior team since 2010.{{cite web |url=http://www.sisepuede.es/noticias-deportes/del-futbol-no-puedes-vivir-y-tienes-que-prepararte-otra-cosa-para-el-futuro-2610201011527.html |title=Del fútbol no puedes vivir y tienes que prepararte otra cosa para el futuro | - SÍ, SE PUEDE - Noticias para inmigrantes en España |access-date=2010-10-26 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720143506/http://www.sisepuede.es/noticias-deportes/del-futbol-no-puedes-vivir-y-tienes-que-prepararte-otra-cosa-para-el-futuro-2610201011527.html |archive-date=20 July 2011 |df=dmy-all |language=es}} Because Jade competed for Spain in the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship, scoring two goals in the second match, she had been registered as a Spanish player in FIFA's database.
Just days prior to the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, FIFA temporarily suspended Jade from both international and club competition for two months, on the grounds that she was playing with Equatorial Guinea while having played with a Spanish national team within the past five years. Since the Equatoguinean Football Federation did not complete the process of changing her FIFA-registered nationality in a timely manner, she was declared ineligible, and Equatorial Guinea were also removed from qualifying for the 2012 Summer Olympics as a result.{{Cite news |last=Chappell |first=Bill |date=2011-06-30 |title=Women's World Cup 2011: A Quick Guide |language=en |work=NPR |publisher=NPR |url=https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2011/06/30/137477594/womens-world-cup-2011-a-quick-guide |access-date=2022-05-17}} In September 2011 she announced she would not play for Equatorial Guinea anymore.{{cite news | url=https://as.com/futbol/2011/09/10/mas_futbol/1315605614_850215.html | title=Jade: "No volveré a jugar con Guinea Ecuatorial" | date=10 September 2011 | publisher=Diario AS | first=Isabel | last=Roldán | language=es | access-date=13 December 2018 }} However, Jade reversed her decision a year later, to go to Malabo for a friendly match against the Democratic Republic of the Congo in June 2012.
