Club career

[edit]

Fan Yunlong started his football career with hometown club Guizhou Zhicheng in 2008 and played in the China League Two with the club for three seasons. He then transferred to China League One side Shanghai East Asia after Guizhou Zhicheng failed to be promoted in the 2010 season.[1] However, Guizhou Zhicheng bought Shanghai Pudong Zobon F.C.'s League One license on 28 January 2011, Shanghai East Asia agreed to let Fan return to Guizhou Zhicheng after nearly one month's negotiation.[2] Fan scored four goals in 24 appearances in the 2011 season, however, Guizhou finished last place in the league and was relegated back to the third tier after they were beaten by Fujian Smart Hero in a penalty shootout in the relegation play-offs.[3] Fan chose to stay in the club for the 2012 season and scored 15 goals in 29 appearances as Guizhou finished first place in the third tier and won promotion back to the second flight.

On 16 January 2013, Fan transferred to Chinese Super League side Guizhou Renhe.[4] In December 2015, Fan returned to Guizhou Zhicheng on a one-year loan deal.[5] He made a permanent transfer to Guizhou Zhicheng on 24 December 2016 after the club won promotion to the Chinese Super League.[6] Fan transferred to fellow Super League side Guangzhou R&F (now known as Guangzhou City) on 22 January 2019 after Guizhou were relegated to the second tier.[7] While he went on to establish himself as a regular with the Guangzhou team, Fan would be allowed to return to Guizhou on loan for the fourth time in his career on 20 May 2020.[8] On 11 April 2023 he announced his retirement from professional football.[9]
