Club career edit

Ju Feng started his professional football career in 2013 when he joined Liaoning Youth for the 2013 China League Two.[1] He played 13 league matches of 14 in the season under manager Yasuharu Kurata. Ju moved to Chinese Super League side Guangzhou R&F academy in January 2014 and transferred to Guangzhou Evergrande in the summer.[2]

Ju played at Guangzhou Evergrande's reserved team until he was loaned to J2 League side Ehime FC for one season on 9 March 2017.[3] Before joining Ehime FC, Ju also made trials with several J League clubs such as Montedio Yamagata, Mito HollyHock and Ventforet Kofu in 2016. On 21 June 2017, he made his debut for the club in a 2–1 home win against Kamatamare Sanuki in the second round of 2017 Emperor's Cup.[4] He played two Emperor's Cup matches for Ehime FC in the 2017 season before his loan deal ended on 25 December 2017.[5]

Ju transferred to newly relegated China League One side Changchun Yatai in February 2019.[6] At Changchun, Ju was embroiled in a contract dispute with the club where he claimed that the initial draft of his contract with the club was to see him receive a 20% pay rise and not a pay cut of 97.5% instead.[7] The club still pushed ahead with the players registration with the Chinese Football Association and demanded that he return to Changchun, however Ju claimed he never signed a contract with the club and returned to Guangzhou Evergrande.[8]
