Timeline
Chen Zhizhao ; born 14 March 1988), known as Zizao in Brazil, is a Chinese former professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder.
In his career he represented Citizen before joining second tier club Nanchang Hengyuan where he gained promotion with them and then became the team's top goalscorer in the following season as he helped them remain within the top tier.
He would go on to have a brief spell with Brazilian team Corinthians before returning to China with Beijing Guoan.
He would spend seven seasons at Guangzhou R&F in the Chinese Super League before ending his career.
Chen Zhizhao started his football career playing for Shanghai Shenhua's youth academy; however, he was unable to break into their first team.
He received a ban of four matches at the beginning of 2014 season by Chinese Football Association for age falsification which he changed his age from 14 March 1988 to 14 March 1989.
He then transferred to Hong Kong First Division League side Citizen AA at the beginning of the 2007-08 league season where he would make his debut for the club against Lanwa Redbull in the first game of the season in a 0-0 draw.
He quickly established himself within the team and would play in 13 league games and see Citizen come second within the league.
Throughout the season he would also play in all of Citizen's cup games and would score his first goal against Eastern AA on 24 November 2007 in a Hong Kong Senior Shield game that Citizen lose 3-1.
His following goals would come in the Hong Kong FA Cup where he scored against Eastern AA on 10 May 2008 in a semifinal game that saw them win 1-0.

Chen moved back to mainland China and signed a five-year contract with Nanchang Hengyuan (now known as Shanghai Shenxin) on 26 February 2009.
He scored three goals as Nanchang finished second in the China League One and won promotion to the Chinese Super League for the first time.
He scored ten goals and assisted eight times in thirty appearances which secured Nanchang's stay in the top flight for the next season.
According to Chen's contract with the club on 26 February 2009, if a non-Chinese football club provided a bid of around €200,000 for him before 26 February 2011, then Nanchang would accept the transfer without any condition.
However, Nanchang insisted that €200,000 was provided by Chen's agency instead of the Portuguese club; besides, in the new contract which signed in early 2010, there were no related contract terms, so they had enough reasons to block this transfer.
Chen refused to return to the club after this incident.
Chen was linked with Liga de Honra side C.D. Trofense in January 2011.
Trofense was interested with Chen, but Nanchang blocked this transfer.
