Li Wei (Chinese: 李微; pinyin: Lǐ Wēi; born 18 March 1985 in Beijing) is a Chinese football player who currently plays as a midfielder for China League One side Zhejiang Greentown.

Club career[]

Li Wei was born in Beijing. He moved to Shandong to begin his football career, where he would play for the Shandong Luneng under-19 youth team. With Shandong Luneng comfortably winning the 2006 Chinese Super League title the club's manager Ljubiša Tumbaković allowed Li Wei to graduate to the senior team on October 5, 2006, which he came onto as a substitute against Shanghai Shenhua in a 2-1 defeat.[1] This was his only appearance in the season. It was not until the 2007 league season that saw Li Wei establish himself as a regular member of the Shandong team when he played in seventeen league games for them, which also included his first senior goal on May 9, 2007 in an AFC Champions League group game vs Adelaide United at Jinan.[2] This was followed by his first league goal against Wuhan Guanggu on September 5, 2007 in a 2-0 win.[3] The following season, however, would see Li Wei struggle to remain as a first choice player. Despite winning the 2008 Chinese Super League title with the club he was mainly used as a peripheral squad player within the team. He would continue to be used as a substitute until the introduction of Branko Ivanković as the club's new manager in the 2010 league season. Wei's ability to play in numerous midfield positions saw him gain significantly more playing time under Ivanković's reign and aid Shandong to win another league title.
