**Zhao Junzhe** ([Chinese](/source/Chinese_language): 肇俊哲; [pinyin](/source/Pinyin): *Zhào Jùnzhé*; born 19 April 1979) is a [Chinese](/source/Chinese_people) football coach and former professional footballer who was most recently the manager of [Chinese Super League](/source/Chinese_Super_League) club [Cangzhou Mighty Lions](/source/Cangzhou_Mighty_Lions_F.C.). He spent his entire playing career at [Liaoning FC](/source/Liaoning_F.C.). He's related to the ruling clan of the former [Qing](/source/Qing) imperial dynasty, the [Aisin-Gioro](/source/Aisin-Gioro) clan.

## Club career

Zhao Junzhe was promoted to [Liaoning F.C.](/source/Liaoning_F.C.)'s first team from the club's youth academy and made his debut in the 1998 season. He continued to be a vital member for Liaoning that season when he aided them to being runners-up and the [Chinese FA Cup](/source/Chinese_FA_Cup).[1] He was soon promoted to club captain and won the [Chinese Football Association](/source/Chinese_Football_Association) Player of the Year award in 2004. The following seasons saw the club's fortunes fall and Zhao unfortunately led the team to relegation to the second tier at the end of the 2008 season. Despite this setback, he remained with the team and immediately led Liaoning back up to the top tier when they won the second tier title in the 2009 season. Zhao announced his retirement from football at the end of the 2016 season. On 30 October 2016, he made last appearance in his career in a league match against [Jiangsu Suning](/source/Jiangsu_Suning_F.C.).[2]

## International career

Zhao was included into the [Chinese national team](/source/China_national_football_team) by then manager [Bora Milutinović](/source/Bora_Milutinovi%C4%87) for the [2002 FIFA World Cup](/source/2002_FIFA_World_Cup).[3] Though his chances were limited on the national team at the time, he did play in two group stage matches during the tournament and nearly scored by hitting the post against [Brazil](/source/Brazil_national_football_team).[4] He played a vital role in the [2004 AFC Asian Cup](/source/2004_AFC_Asian_Cup) in which China finished the tournament as runners-up.

## Managerial career

On 29 September 2017, Zhao was appointed as the caretaker manager of [Liaoning FC](/source/Liaoning_F.C.), who sat at the bottom of the league table.[5] On 14 October, in his first game as manager, he guided Liaoning to a 3–3 draw against second place team [Shanghai SIPG](/source/Shanghai_SIPG).[6] However, Liaoning finally relegated to the second tier after losing the last three matches of the season. On 12 December 2017, Zhao's caretaker spell ended when [Chen Yang](/source/Chen_Yang_(footballer)) became the manager of Liaoning.[7]

On 21 February 2023, Zhao was appointed as the head coach of [Chinese Super League](/source/Chinese_Super_League) club [Cangzhou Mighty Lions](/source/Cangzhou_Mighty_Lions_F.C.).[8] On 16 July 2024, he swapped positions with [Li Xiaopeng](/source/Li_Xiaopeng_(footballer)) to become the team's general manager.[9]
