Club career

Zhang joined Changsha Ginde youth team system in the early year and was promoted to first team squad in 2007. On 7 April 2007, he made his Super League debut in a 4–2 away defeat against Shandong Luneng Taishan, coming on as a substitute for Li Zhenhong in the 80th minute.[1] Playing as a substitute striker, Zhang made just 26 appearances for Changsha Ginde between 2007 and 2010. His first senior goal came on 14 August 2010, in a 3–2 away defeat against Tianjin Teda.[2]

After Changsha Ginde relegated to second-tier league in the end of 2010 season, Zhang transferred to Super League club Shaanxi Chanba in December 2010 with his elder brother Zhang Chenglin.[3] However, he failed to establish himself within the first team and played mostly in the reserve team league. He followed the club to move to Guizhou in 2012. On 4 July 2012, he made his debut for Guizhou Renhe in the third round of 2012 Chinese FA Cup which Guizhou beat Guangdong Sunray Cave 2–0 at Guiyang Olympic Centre.[4] Along with Wang Erzhuo and Liao Linkun, Zhang was loaned to China League Two club Shaanxi Laochenggen for the rest of the season in mid-July. He scored 5 goals in the Group Stage as Shaanxi Laochenggen finished 4th place in the North Group and entered the play-offs stage. However, Shaanxi lost to Guizhou Zhicheng 2–0 on aggregate in the quarter-finals and failed to promote to China League One.[5] In March 2013, Shaanxi Laochenggen extended Zhang's loan deal for one year.[6]

In March 2015, Zhang transferred to China League Two side Tianjin Locomotive.[7] He moved to fellow China League Two side Heilongjiang Lava Spring in March 2016.

Personal life

Zhang Chengxiang's elder brother, Zhang Chenglin, is also a professional footballer. They played together at Changsha Ginde (2007–2010) and Guizhou Renhe (2011–2014).
