Irfan Jaya (born 1 May 1996) is an Indonesian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Liga 1 club PSS Sleman and the Indonesia national team.
Club career[]
Persebaya Surabaya[]
Irfan Jaya started his professional career in 2017 after signing a four-year contract with legendary club Persebaya Surabaya when it was trying to win promotion from Liga 2. He made his debut on 20 July 2017, coming on from the bench, and helped Persebaya win 1–0 over Madiun Putra at Wilis Stadium in Madiun. He won the best Liga 2 player award at the end of the season and was a key reason behind Persebaya's return to Liga 1 (Indonesia), the country's top-flight football league.[2]
Surviving its first year after returning to Liga 1 with a respectable result in 2018, Persebaya strongly finished second in the 2019 Liga 1 with Irfan Jaya's significant contribution from the flanks. He scored 25 goals in his four years with Persebaya and became a fan favorite until his move to PSS Sleman.
PSS Sleman[]
Irfan Jaya in 2021 joined Liga 1 club PSS Sleman after its new management in 2020-21 drastically improved the club, including recruiting players who could boost a middling team into a new level.[3]
International career[]
Irfan Jaya won his first international cap for Indonesia in a friendly match against Mauritius.[4]
He scored his first international goal for Indonesia in a match against Myanmar.[5]
