== Club career ==
Lu Jiang started his professional football career with [Beijing Guoan](/source/Beijing_Guoan) in 2000 as a highly promising young midfielder who came from the club's youth team.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://sports.sina.com.cn/star/lu_jiang/ |title = 姓名：路姜 |website = sports.sina.com.cn |date= |access-date=2012-08-07 }}</ref> He would progress within the team establishing himself as a squad regular until the beginning of the 2002 league season when new Beijing Guoan Head coach [Ljupko Petrović](/source/Ljupko_Petrovi%C4%87) promoted Lu Jiang as a first choice regular within the team. Lu Jiang would then spend several seasons as a vital member within the Beijing team, however the club were not regular title contenders and they brought in [Shen Xiangfu](/source/Shen_Xiangfu) as their new Head coach in 2005, this would however see Lu Jiang finding himself increasingly dropped from the team during the end of the season. Lu Jiang's performances saw him relegated to a squad player throughout the 2006 league season and it was only when [Lee Jang-Soo](/source/Lee_Jang-Soo) came in to manage the team in 2007 was he able to get some more playing time. Under Lee Jang-Soo's reign he would become a versatile player able to play as a right back and with the sudden retirement of the team's right back [Zhang Shuai](/source/Zhang_Shuai_(footballer%2C_born_1981)) at the end of the 2008 league season Lu Jiang would establish himself as a first choice regular once more within the team even after being banned for eight games after having a scuffle with [Li Weifeng](/source/Li_Weifeng) in a league game on September 27, 2008, against [Wuhan Optics Valley](/source/Wuhan_Optics_Valley).<ref>{{cite web |url = http://english.people.com.cn/90001/90779/90871/6530650.html |title = Wuhan ejected from soccer league |website=english.people.com.cn |date = November 10, 2008 |access-date=2012-08-07 }}</ref> Despite [Zhou Ting](/source/Zhou_Ting) going on to become Beijing's first choice right back Lu Jiang would gain significant playing time and go on to win the [2009 Chinese Super League](/source/2009_Chinese_Super_League) title with the club.<ref>{{cite web |url = https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/china09.html |title = China 2009
