Tao Qianglong (simplified Chinese: 陶强龙; traditional Chinese: 陶強龍; pinyin: Táo Qiánglóng; born 20 November 2001) is a Chinese professional footballer who plays as a winger for Chinese Super League club Wuhan Three Towns.
Club career
In 2013, Tao was invited to train with the youth teams of Spanish side Villarreal.[1]
Tao Qianglong would play for the Beijing Guoan youth teams setup and the various age groups for the Chinese national team, which saw Hebei China Fortune interested in his services.[2] Soon after completing his move to Hebei he was promoted to the first team and was handed his debut in a Chinese Super League game by the Head coach Chris Coleman on 2 March 2019 against Shenzhen F.C. where he came on as a substitute for Yin Hongbo in a 3-1 defeat.[3] The manager would show considerable faith in Tao by continuing to play him, which saw Tao repay his faith in him by scoring his first goal for the club on 13 April 2019 in a league game against Chongqing Dangdai Lifan that ended in a 2-1 loss.[4] By the end of the season Tao had become a regular within the team and fellow top tier club Dalian Professional signed him on 27 February 2020.[5]
On 29 April 2022, it was announced that Tao would join newly-promoted Chinese Super League club Wuhan Three Towns.[6]
International career
On 24 July 2022, Tao made his international debut in a 0-0 draw against Japan in the 2022 EAFF E-1 Football Championship, as the Chinese FA decided to field the U-23 national team for this senior competition. [7]
