Zhang Jiaqi (simplified Chinese: 张佳琪; traditional Chinese: 張佳琪; pinyin: Zhāng Jiāqí; born 3 September 1991) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Guangzhou Evergrande in the Chinese Super League.
Club career
Zhang Jiaqi started his football career playing for Le Mans' youth academy. He played for their reserve team before being signed to the first team in 2012. On 8 February 2013, Zhang made his Ligue 2 debut for Le Mans in a 1-1 away draw against Clermont Foot.[1] After starting three straight games in a row for Le Mans, Zhang scored his first goal, which ending up being the match-winning goal in a 3-2 win against Niort on 22 February 2013.[2] Zhang became a mainstay in the team's starting eleven for the rest of the season, however Le Mans was relegated to the third tier Championnat National on the last day of the season. In November 2013, Swiss Super League club FC Sion announced Zhang had signed a contract with the club after Le Mans dissolved.[3] However, Zhang could not register for the club because they had already reached the maximum 25 players allowed in the squad.
On 27 February 2014, Zhang signed with Chinese Super League side Dalian Aerbin on a free transfer. He made his debut for the club on 30 April 2014 in a 1-1 draw against Guizhou Renhe. On 24 December 2014, Zhang transferred to top tier side Guangzhou Evergrande after Dalian was relegated at the end of the 2014 season.[4]
International career
Zhang made his debut for the Chinese national team on 18 June 2014 in a 2-0 win against Macedonia.[5]
