Wu Weian started his career with second tier club Guangdong Xiongying in 2002 where he established himself the following season as a team regular.[1] However while he may have cemented himself within the team (now renaming itself Shenzhen Kejian at the start of the 2004 league season) he was unable to aid them in their promotion bid to the top tier.[2] Tianjin Teda however were willing to take Wu Wei'an and with the chance to play in the Chinese Super League, Wu Wei'an transferred to Tianjin at the beginning of the 2005 league season. With this move Wu Wei'an would rise to prominence, quickly establishing himself as a regular within the team he would play in 26 league games and score 7 goals.[3]
He made his debut in 2007 against Kazakhstan in a 2-1 friendly win. He would score his debut goal again Myanmar in a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification game[4]
