Zhang Chengdong started his football career playing for various youth academies until [[Serie A]] side [[A.C. Milan]] considered him a promising enough prospect to train with them in 2004.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.sina.com.cn/g/2010-01-21/11484801387.shtml|script-title=zh:揭秘张呈栋:出身米兰青训体系 被霸王合同逼至无球踢|publisher=sports.sina.com.cn|date=2010-01-21|accessdate=2012-09-18|language=zh}}</ref> After his short period with Milan, he would return home to be promoted to [[Liaoning Whowin]]'s reserve team before he graduated to Liaoning's first team where he would make his league debut against [[Shandong Luneng]] on 21 May 2006 in a 5-0 defeat.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.sohu.com/20060521/n243327937.shtml|script-title=zh:大羽回家发威独中四元 山东鲁能5-0血洗辽足 评|publisher=sports.sohu.com|date=2006-05-21|accessdate=2012-09-18|language=zh}}</ref> Despite the defeat, Zhang would get further opportunities; however, he was often used as a substitute throughout his stint with the club. When the club were relegated in the 2008 season, Zhang's contract was up for renewal and while he was considered as a long term star within the team, he could not agree upon a suitable contract which he believed was too low.
Born in [[Baoding]], [[Hebei]], Zhang joined [[Liaoning Whowin]]'s youth setup in 1994, aged five. In 2004 he was invited for a trial at [[Serie A]] club [[A.C. Milan]], but nothing came of it and he subsequently returned to his parent club.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.sina.com.cn/g/2010-01-21/11484801387.shtml|script-title=zh:揭秘张呈栋:出身米兰青训体系 被霸王合同逼至无球踢|trans_title=Zhang Chengdong's secret: raised in Milan's youth system fought for contract without the ball|publisher=[[Sina Corp]]|language=zh|date=21 January 2010|accessdate=18 September 2012}}</ref>


Without a club, he would return home to train before going to Portugal to advertise his services until third tier side [[C.D. Mafra]] took him on a free transfer on 23 September 2009.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.xinmin.cn/rollnews/2009/09/23/2616906.html|script-title=zh:国青前锋加盟葡萄牙球队 他被看做是中国最有前途新星|publisher=news.xinmin.cn|date=2009-09-23|accessdate=2012-09-18|language=zh}}</ref> He was quickly integrated into the team, however it was only once he scored his first hat-trick against [[Sporting Clube de Portugal|Sporting CP]] in the [[2009–10 Taça de Portugal|Taça de Portugal]] in a 4-3 defeat did he become noticed within the team.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.sina.com.cn/g/2010-01-21/06584800815.shtml|script-title=zh:葡杯-中国边锋帽子戏法 葡乙队客场3-4里斯本竞技|publisher=sports.sina.com.cn|date=2010-01-21|accessdate=2012-09-18|language=zh}}</ref>
Zhang was promoted to Liaoning's first team in 2006, and made his professional debut on 21 May of that year, starting in a 5-0 loss against [[Shandong Luneng]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sports.sohu.com/20060521/n243327937.shtml|script-title=zh:大羽回家发威独中四元 山东鲁能5-0血洗辽足 评|trans_title=Oba goes home angry.

Zhang transferred to [[Primeira Liga]] side [[U.D. Leiria]] in July 2010. He made his debut for the club on 16 August 2010 in a 0-0 draw against [[Beira-Mar]], becoming the first Chinese footballer to play in the Primeira Liga. After his loan spell at the club, he was loaned out again, this time to Beira-Mar. Zhang impressed during his stint at Beira-Mar, scoring six goals in 26 appearances. After the 2011-12 season, Beira-Mar and several other top tier teams were reportedly interested in signing Zhang on a permanent transfer. Many top tier Chinese teams wished to sign him as well, but Zhang decided to ply his trade elsewhere. Zhang transferred to [[Eintracht Braunschweig]] of the [[2. Fußball-Bundesliga|2. Bundesliga]] in August 2012. He came off the bench in his debut against [[SSV Jahn Regensburg]] on 15 September 2012.
After [[2008 Chinese Super League|suffering relegation in 2008]], Zhang refused a contract offer from Liaoning, and was subsequently released. Already as a [[free agent]], he joined [[C.D.

Zhang Chengdong (simplified Chinese: 张呈栋; traditional Chinese: 張呈棟; pinyin: Zhāng Chéngdòng; born 9 February 1989) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for La Liga side Rayo Vallecano on loan from Beijing Guoan.

Club career

Zhang Chengdong started his football career playing for various youth academies until Serie A side A.C. Milan considered him a promising enough prospect to train with them in 2004.[1] After his short period with Milan, he would return home to be promoted to Liaoning Whowin's reserve team before he graduated to Liaoning's first team where he would make his league debut against Shandong Luneng on 21 May 2006 in a 5-0 defeat.[2] Despite the defeat, Zhang would get further opportunities; however, he was often used as a substitute throughout his stint with the club. When the club were relegated in the 2008 season, Zhang's contract was up for renewal and while he was considered as a long term star within the team, he could not agree upon a suitable contract which he believed was too low.

Without a club, he would return home to train before going to Portugal to advertise his services until third tier side C.D. Mafra took him on a free transfer on 23 September 2009.[3] He was quickly integrated into the team, however it was only once he scored his first hat-trick against Sporting CP in the Taça de Portugal in a 4-3 defeat did he become noticed within the team.[4]

Zhang transferred to Primeira Liga side U.D. Leiria in July 2010. He made his debut for the club on 16 August 2010 in a 0-0 draw against Beira-Mar, becoming the first Chinese footballer to play in the Primeira Liga. After his loan spell at the club, he was loaned out again, this time to Beira-Mar. Zhang impressed during his stint at Beira-Mar, scoring six goals in 26 appearances. After the 2011-12 season, Beira-Mar and several other top tier teams were reportedly interested in signing Zhang on a permanent transfer. Many top tier Chinese teams wished to sign him as well, but Zhang decided to ply his trade elsewhere. Zhang transferred to Eintracht Braunschweig of the 2. Bundesliga in August 2012. He came off the bench in his debut against SSV Jahn Regensburg on 15 September 2012.

Zhang was signed by Chinese Super League side Beijing Guoan on 22 July 2013. He made his debut for the club on 25 August 2013 in a 4-0 win against Dalian Aerbin. He scored his first goal for the club on 17 May 2014 in a 2-1 loss to Shanghai Shenxin. On 21 July 2015, Zhang transferred to La Liga side Rayo Vallecano on loan for the 2015-16 season.[5] He made his debut for the club on 5 December 2015 in the Copa del Rey in a 2-0 win against Getafe.[6] He made his league debut on 30 December 2015 in a 2-0 loss against Atletico Madrid, becoming the first Chinese footballer to play in La Liga.

International career

Zhang was called up by then manager Gao Hongbo and made his first appearance for the Chinese national team on 3 March 2010 in a 2-0 loss against Portugal.[7][8]
