Daiki Jahana (謝花 大喜, Jahana Daigi, born 24 August 1997) is a Japanese professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Philippines Football League club Manila Digger.[1][2]

Youth career[edit]

Jahana was born in the city of Uruma in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan.[3] In his youth, he played high school football for both Agena Junior High School and Gushikawa High School.[4] He also played for the youth team of Kawasaki AFC.[5]

Club career[edit]

Playing abroad[edit]

After finishing school, Jahana played for Japanese club Siesta Yomitan for one year.[6] In 2018, he moved to Australia and played for several clubs in Melbourne, most notably Fitzroy City.[7][8] After a brief season there, he moved to Lithuania and played for DFK Dainava, in the second tier of Lithuanian Football called the Pyrma Liga.[3] In 2020, he transferred to Taiwanese side Saturday Football International, and departed the club early the next year.

Mongolia[edit]

In 2022, after a brief stint back in Japan with Kaiho Bank SC, he moved to Mongolia and played for Khaan Khuns-Erchim FC as an Asian import, as the club won the 2021–22 title in his first season.[5][9] However, midway through the season he transferred clubs, staying in Mongolia and instead playing for Khovd FC.[10][11]

Cambodia[edit]

Jahana ended his short stay at Khovd and signed again within Asia, playing as an AFC player for Cambodian Premier League side Kirivong Sok Sen Chey.[12][10][13] Over the first half of the season, he would make 7 appearances before departing in the transfer window at the end of the year.[14]

Manila Digger[edit]

In March 2024, it was reported that Jahana had signed a contract with Manila Digger, a club entering the Philippines Football League for the first time for the 2024 season.[2] He was included in the club's roster for the season, and scored his first goal on his debut, a match winner against Philippine Army.[15][16] He had a successful stint at the club, making double digits in appearances and registering multiple goals and assists.[17][18][19]
