Wang Song (Simplified Chinese: 汪嵩) (born October 12, 1983) is a Chinese football player who currently plays for Hangzhou Greentown in the Chinese Super League.
Playing career
Wang Song began his career playing for Sichuan Quanxing as a left midfielder and would gradually establish himself as a regular within the team until the end of the 2005 league season when the club disbanded at the end of the season. This left Wang free to join second tier club Chengdu Blades where he pushed forward up as a striker and then named as their captain. This responsibility seemed to get the best out of him and he became the top scorer in the 2007 promotion season with 17 goals in 24 games.[1] His form quickly caught the eye of the Chinese football team and in November 2007, he became the first Chengdu Blade player to be called up for the Chinese national side. By the end of the 2008 league season he had lead Chengdu Blades to a thirteenth place within the league, however the following season saw the club relegated and he left to join Hangzhou Greentown
International career
After his impressive 2007 league season for Chengdu Blades where he was the divisions top goalscorer the Chinese Head coach Vladimir Petrović called Wang Song up to his squad where he gave him his international debut in a friendly against Lebanon national football team on the 20 January 2008 in a 0-0 draw.[2] Playing in several further friendlies Wang was often playing back again as a left midfielder and was unable to make much of an impression within the team before he was dropped from the squad.
Personal life
His girlfriend is the Sichuan Area Champion of Miss Universe Zeng Meijuan, who is an Australian.
