Club career
Fu Bin was born in Beijing , but moved to Hebei Province, where he began his sports career, but first played basketball , then football caught his attention. His successes were noticed by the local Hebei football team, for which he began to play as a goalkeeper since 1986 . [3] Fu Bin spent several seasons at Hebei. In 1994, the football league became professional and Fu Binhu offered the contract to Jilin Samsung Club. The beginning of a professional career was disappointing - the new goalkeeper of the club never became the first number and spent almost the entire first season on the bench. However, in the same season, Fu Bin had the opportunity to return to his hometown and start playing for the Beijing Guoan . The decision was very important for the player’s career, as it was in the new team that he became the main goalkeeper and the “ Beijing Guoan ” had the peak of his career - the club managed to win the China Football Association Cup twice (in 1996 and 1997), in addition, it was here received the first call to the national team .
In the 1998 season, the Qianwei Huangdao Club (currently called Chongqing Lifan ) offered him 2 million yuan . Despite all the successes in the Beijing club and the challenge to the national team, Fu Bin accepted the offer of “ Qianwei Huangdao ”. This transition caused disapproval of fans of Beijing Guoan , who decided that it was all about the money, since the goalkeeper had transferred from a well-known team to a club that had only recently received the right to play in the major league of Chinese football. [3] The first few seasons were not very impressive for the team and Fu Bin, but he responded to critics by winning the national cup in 2000 . Here he spent five full seasons, and in 2003 he joined the team of the second league “ Hunan Xiangjun ”, where, in addition to playing the role of the main goalkeeper, he also tried his hand at coaching, becoming a goalkeeping coach. By the beginning of the 2006 season, Hunan Xiangjun left the second league and Fu Bin was given the opportunity to leave the club. This time he also chose the Chengdu Blades second division team, which won a ticket to the Super League in the first season, and Fu Bin himself was able to return to the top division again. [4] For two seasons, Fu Bin played with the team in the Super League, ending his professional career as a player on October 31, 2009 in the regular season game against Shandong Luneng , which ended in a 1-0 victory. At that time, the player was 40 years old and 133 days. [five]
