Hu Weiwei (Chinese: 胡威威; Pinyin: Hú Wēiwēi; born 3 March 1993) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Qingdao Jonoon in the China League One.

Club career

Hu started his football career with China League Two side Dongguan Nancheng in 2011.[1] Playing as a winger in the team, he scored one goal in sixteen appearances for the club in the 2011 season. Dongguan Nancheng lost to Chongqing F.C. 3–0 on aggregate in the semi-finals during the promotion playoffs which meant they failed to promote to China League One directly, and then lost to Fujian Smart Hero 2–0 in the third-place playoff and failed to enter to the relegation playoffs.[2] Although Dongguan Nancheng was deemed as one of the hottest clubs for promotion in the 2012 season, they were knocked out from the group stage by finished the sixth place in south group. Hu played seventeen league matches and scored a goal during the 2012 season.

Hu transferred to Chinese Super League giant Guangzhou Evergrande along with his teammates Fang Jingqi, Liao Lisheng, Yang Chaosheng, Li Weixin, Zhang Xingbo and Wang Rui in November 2012.[3] He made his debut for Guangzhou on 7 August 2013 in the fifth round of 2013 Chinese FA Cup in a 2–2 draw against Hangzhou Greentown but winning 5–3 in the penalty shootout, coming on as a substitute for Shi Hongjun in the 68th minute.[4] His league debut for Guangzhou came on 15 October 2013 in a 1–1 away draw against Liaoning Whowin, coming on as a substitute for Zhang Hongnan in the 47th minute.

On 11 February 2015, Hu transferred to China League One side Qingdao Jonoon.[5]

International career

Hu scored nine goals in five matches for the Chinese under-17 national team during 2010 AFC U-16 Championship qualification. He played all three group stage matches for China in the 2010 AFC U-16 Championship.
