[edit]

Born to Korean parents Bai Yuefeng was born and raised in China before he started his football career with the Beijing Huaya Feiying youth team where he was considered good enough to travel to Serbia and Montenegro on a three-year football training program. On his return he was scouted by top tier Chinese football team Shanghai International, however he sustained a serious injury during training and the club ended their interest, nevertheless recently promoted side Xiamen Blue Lions were willing to take a risk on him and Bai Lei signed a professional contract with them at the beginning of the 2006 league season.[1] With Xiamen he was quickly included in the squads first team and make his league debut against Shandong Luneng on March 12, 2006, in a 3–1 defeat.[2] Despite that defeat he quickly established himself within the squad and go on to score his first goal for the club in a league game on September 17, 2006, against Shenzhen Kingway in a 2–0 victory.[3] In the following season he solidified his position in the Xiamen team, but could not prevent them from relegation at the end of the 2007 league season.[4] Bai joined newly promoted Chinese Super League side Guangzhou Pharmaceutical at the beginning of the 2008 league season, and played in the club's first league game of the season against Shenzhen Xiangxue on March 30, 2008, in a 3–0 victory.[5] The club's manager Shen Xiangfu moved him into the team's defence, and this seemed to work; Guangzhou had seventh-place finish at the end of season.[6]

While Bai continued his good form for Guangzhou the club were discovered to be involved in a match-fixing scandal that was directly related to their promotion to the top tier and were relegated at the end of the 2009 league season.[7] Bai refused to return Guangzhou for pre-season training and searched for transfer. On February 12, 2010, Bai joined Tianjin Teda for a fee of ¥1.7 million. He made his debut in a league game against Shanghai Shenhua on April 14, 2010, in a 2–0 defeat.[8] Throughout the season he was given more opportunities by the manager Arie Haan who decided to move Bai to full back.[9] After 13 seasons with the club he retired on 21 April 2023 with a commemorative ceremony.[10]
