Hu Hetao ( simplified Chinese: 胡荷韬; traditional Chinese: 胡荷韜; pinyin: Hú Hétāo; born 5 October 2003) is a Chinese professional footballer who plays as a left wing-back for Chinese Super League club Chengdu Rongcheng.
Born in Wanzhou, Chongqing, [1] Hu Hetao attended Chongqing Yucai Secondary School until 2018, prior to starting a professional football career. In 2022, after spending the few years prior preparing for Gaokao, he was called up to the Chengdu Rongcheng first-team. [2]
Before the 2022 Chinese Super League season, Hu Hetao was named in Chengdu Rongcheng's 31-man first-team squad, [3] to which Hu Hetao reacts as "fulfilling his dream." [2] He made his professional debut in the Chinese Super League on 4 June 2022 in a match against Shenzhen, playing 74 minutes as a starter at left wing-back. [4] He scored his first senior goal a month later on 11 July 2022, providing an equalising goal after coming on as a substitute, to see Chengdu Rongcheng eventually turn the game around, winning 2–1 away against Meizhou Hakka. [5] After putting in a good shift against Wuhan Three Towns on 23 December 2022, Hu Hetao was selected as the CSL's Player of the Round. [6] After a successful debut season with Chengdu Rongcheng, he was shortlisted as a candidate for the club's player of the season. [7]
In the 2023 season, Hu Hetao was regularly called up to the China U20 and the China U23 national teams, participating in months-long national team training camps. As a result, he could not find consistent game time at club level, and caused a steep dip in his form, [8] only managing eight appearances in all competitions throughout the season. [9]
In February 2023, Hu was selected as part of the China U20 squad for the 2023 AFC U-20 Asian Cup. [10] Throughout the year of 2023, Hu Hetao was called up to several months-long training camps at the U20 and the U23 levels. [11] [12] [13]
On 5 April 2024, Hu was included in the China U23 squad for the 2024 AFC U-23 Asian Cup. [14]
Hu Hetao was a ball boy at the 2021 Chinese FA Cup final. [15]
