Biography
editWang Jun began his professional football career with third-tier club Tianjin Vanke in the 1996 league season and saw them win promotion to the second tier. After only one season the club were relegated and the club decided to disband, allowing for Wang Jun to leave. He would stay within Tianjin to join recently relegated second-tier side Tianjin Teda and within his first season see the club win promotion to the top tier.[1] The following season would see Wang Jun aid Tianjin Teda to mid-table safety and then build a relationship with the club that lasted for ten years that would eventually see Wang named as the team's captain until he retired at the end of the 2007 league season.
