Club career

Xu Yang graduated from the Shandong Luneng youth team in 2006 after playing for their various youth teams that trained in Serbia and would soon join a third tier Serbian club in FK Beograd for the second part of the 2006-07 season.[1] However his time in the senior team was to prove extremely frustrating after he was unable to immediately break into the squad. Shandong Luneng were willing to let Xu Yang transfer to Henan Jianye in 2008 where he would make his debut against Changsha Ginde F.C. on 7 September 2008 in a 1-0 loss.[2] Xu Yang would nevertheless quickly established himself within the squad and eventually play in 13 league games throughout the 2008 league season.[3]

On 2 January 2016, Xu transferred to fellow Chinese Super League side Chongqing Lifan.[4] On 28 February 2018, Xu transferred to China League One side Shenzhen FC.[5]

International career

Xu Yang would be called-up to the Chinese national football by the Chinese Head coach Gao Hongbo. He would make his debut against Iran in a friendly, which China won 1-0 on 1 June 2009, where Xu Yang played as a left winger throughout the game.[6]
