Zhou Junchen (Chinese: 周俊辰; pinyin: Zhōu Jùnchén; born 23 March 2000) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays as a winger for Shanghai Shenhua.

Club career

[edit]

Zhou Junchen joined Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua's youth academy in March 2018 when Shenhua bought Genbao Football Base's U19 teams.[1] He was promoted to the first team squad in the summer break of 2018.[2] On 18 July 2018, Zhou made his senior debut in a league match against Tianjin Teda, replacing Cao Yunding in the 80th minute, making him the second player born in the new millennium to make an appearance in the Chinese Super League (after Zhang Aokai in 2016).[3] He assisted Demba Ba's winning goal one minute after coming on as a substitute.[4]

While on duty representing the China U20 team for the GSB Bangkok Cup, Zhou would be in violation for breaking the national teams discipline on 8 September 2018. On 17 September 2018, he was banned from the national team and suspended for one year from 9 September 2018 to 8 September 2019 for all competitions organized by the Chinese Football Association.[5] On 11 April 2019 his suspension was dropped after he apologised for going out for dinner and breaking the teams curfew without permission while on international duty.[6] On 12 April 2019 he made his return for Shenhua in a league game against Guangzhou R&F as a late substitute for Wang Wei, which ended in a 2-1 defeat.[7] On 28 February 2020 he joined newly promoted Qingdao Huanghai on loan for the start of the 2020 Chinese Super League.[8]
