Though he added, "But I have offers from a few other clubs as well. I am yet to finalize my destination in the forthcoming season." Jairu played for India as well and made 11 appearances for the nation. He represented East Bengal from 2015 to 2017 and had his best season when Biswajit Bhattacharya was the Head Coach.
