Wang Shuang (Chinese: 王霜; pinyin: Wáng Shuāng; born 23 January 1995) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Wuhan Ladies in the Chinese Women's Super League.

Club career

While preparing for the 2013 National Games with provincial side Hubei, Wang Shuang was spotted by scouts of WK-League side Daejeon Sportstoto. On 3 July 2013, it was announced that she had signed a contract with the club and would join after the 2013 EAFF Women's East Asian Cup.[2] In her first season with the club, Wang helped Sportstoto reach the Korean FA Cup final and was awarded the most valuable player award for her efforts after scoring six goals in five appearances. Her initial progress was soon halted due to her commitments with the National Games and the Chinese women's national team.[3] In December 2013, she signed a new one-year contract with the club and was joined by international teammate Wu Haiyan. In 2015, she returned to back to Wuhan Ladies to prepare for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup.

International career

From an early age, Wang was identified as one of the leading young talents in Chinese women's football, representing the under-16 national team at the age of 12.[4] In 2012, then 17 years old, she was included in the under-20 national team for the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.

Wang was called up to the Chinese women's national team for the first time in early 2013, making her debut on 13 January 2013 against Canda. After the match, manager Hao Wei described the then 17 year old as a player "of great potential" despite her only playing 20 minutes.[5] On 21 July 2013, she made her full international debut in a 2-0 loss against Japan at the 2013 EAFF Women's East Asian Cup.[6]

At the 2013 AFC U-19 Women's Championship, Wang would cement her place as one of Asia's most promising young players with five goals in five games as China claimed third place. Her tally was enough to end as the tournament's second top goalscorer. She was later nominated for the AFC Young Player of the Year award after her impressive goalscoring performance in the tournament.[7] Wang continued her good form enough to then be called up to the national team squad for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup.
