Hu Rentian

Hu Rentian is a Chinese midfielder, born on 21 January 1991 in Sichuan, China.

Hu got his primary football education in the Gaofengwen Football Academy. The player started to feature with the youth team at the age of 11 and soon became a regular youth team starter due to his natural talent and hard work on the training ground, gradually establishing himself as a key player of the youth squad.

His prodigious play caught attention of many different Chinese clubs, including FC Tianjin Teda. So the player decided to join the academy of the illustrious Chinese club in 2007. There he fully enjoyed his chance to progress to the next level and signed a professional contract with the club two years later.

Due to his young age and relative lack of experience the player was first used just as a backup for the first team. However, the player managed to score a winner on his first-team debut, which happened on 30 August 2009 during a 1-0 win against FC Jiangsu Sainty. Later Rentian continued to give-it-all on the training ground and tried to impress the head coach whenever he got a chance on the pitch, gradually moving up through the club’s ranks.

At the international level, Hu represented the China U20 squad, taking part in 6 international fixtures.
