He Yang

He Yang is a Chinese defender, born on 23 February 1983 in Tianjin, China.

The player signed his first professional contract in 2002, when joined his hometown side FC Tianjin Teda. The club’s head coach was really excited with the youngster and considered him as a hot future prospect.

Despite such a promising start, He was mostly used as a backup for the first-team. However, the player wasn’t too disheartened and treated the situation in a professional manner, giving all-his-best on and off the pitch.

The player seldom starts matches, as the manager includes him into the starting line-up, only if some key defenders are injured or disqualified. However, Yang proved to be a solid substitute, as he fully enjoys his chances. The defender has already taken part in more, than 80 first-team fixtures and scored 3 goals for his team.

In 2009 He first debuted with the China national football squad.
