Li Fuyu (born May 9, 1978) is a Chinese professional road bicycle racer. Li rode with Marco Polo from 2005 to 2006, before switching to the Pro Tour Discovery Channel under coach Johan Bruyneel for the 2007 season. The Discovery Channel team was disbanded at the end of the highly successful 2007 season, and Li moved on to the newly re-established China-based Trek-Marco Polo Cycling Team for the 2008 season. In 2010, Li rode the newly formed Team RadioShack, reuniting with Bruyneel.

In April 2010 he was dismissed from Team Radio Shack after a doping test revealed clenbuterol,[1][2] a performance-enhancing compound which his former Discovery Channel teammate Alberto Contador was also complicit on a separate occasion.[3][4]
