徐根宝
Wang joined Genbao Football Academy from Liaoning Youth in 2004 with a fee of ¥100,000 and was described by the academy's general manager Xu Genbao as being a hot prospect for the future. Wang was promoted to Shanghai East Asia squad in 2007 for the China League Two campaign. He made an impression within the team as Shanghai East Asia won promotion to the second tier at the end of the season. However, lingering injury kept him out of the field for the next several seasons.
