Club career

[edit]

In 2009, Zhang Li started his professional footballer career with Henan Jianye in the Chinese Super League.[1] He eventually made his league debut for Henan on 21 May 2011 in a game against Dalian Shide.[2] In February 2015, he was loaned to China League One club Wuhan Zall until 31 December 2015.[3] He was sent to the reserved team in 2016.

In February 2017, Zhang moved to fellow Super League side Changchun Yatai.[4] He would go on to make his debut for the club in a league game against Guangzhou R&F F.C. on 12 March 2017, which ended in a 1-0 defeat.[5] On 4 August 2018 in a league game against Shanghai Shenhua, Zhang was accused of racially abusing opposing player Demba Ba.[6] An investigation by the Chinese Football Association saw Zhang officially guilty of causing chaos, however no reference to racial abuse was mentioned. He was handed a six match ban and a fine of 42,000 yuan (US$6,100) on 10 August 2018.[7]
