Early life

[edit]

Zhang Chenliang was born in Datong, Shanxi.[1] At the age of seven, Zhang began training in taekwondo as it was one of his father's hobbies.[1] Around two years later at the age of nine, Zhang switched to football when a friend of his father met a recruiter from a football team, and his father then suggested that Zhang join the team.[1] He was later identified by Liaoning Whowin and he joined their youth academy thereafter.[1] After Liaoning Whowin dissolved their youth team, Zhang briefly returned to Datong Sports School, before going on trial at Hebei Elite and its Brazilian affiliate Olé Brasil Futebol Clube.[1] He was eventually picked in the final squad and trained with Botafogo-SP abroad in Brazil.[1]
