Club career

Ma Leilei joined top tier side Tianjin Teda F.C. in July 2008 and would make his debut for the club on September 21, 2008, in a league game against Shanghai Shenhua in a 1–1 draw where he came on as a substitute.[1] After that game Ma would start to become a regular within the side and would go on to score his first two senior level goals in a 2009 AFC Champions League game on May 5, 2009, against Kawasaki Frontale in a 3–1 victory.[2] After that game he was soon touted as the successor of club legend and former Chinese international Yu Genwei.[3] In October 2016 he joined Australian club Newcastle Jets as part of owner Martin Lee's request that there will be Chinese players at the Jets.[4]
