He moved with his family to the UK at the age of 11, spending a couple of years in the Academy at Manchester City, before later joining Burnley FC U15s. After spending a few years there, Ne-Jai signed his first professional contract at Turf Moor in 2021, frequently appearing for the U23s After a positive season, his extra-year option was activated in June 2022.

Ne-Jai departed The Clarets at the end of the 2022-23 season, with his next club being St George’s Colts, who compete in the Bermudian Premier League. The 22-year old has made many appearances for the Bermuda National Team, scoring his first international goal against Saint Vincent and the Grenadines in 2023.
