Biography
Sun Ke (simplified Chinese: 孙可; traditional Chinese: 孫可; pinyin: Sūn Kě; born 26 August 1989) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Tianjin Quanjian in the China League One.
Club career
Sun Ke started his football career with second tier side Jiangsu Sainty in 2006. By the 2008 season, he would play in 22 league games and score two goals as he was part of the team that won the second tier league title and promotion to the top flight. Within the top tier, Sun found it hard to gain significant playing time until the 2011 season when he started to establish himself as a regular for the first team which soon culminated in his first goal in over two years when he scored on 14 September 2011 in a 2-0 win against Hangzhou Greentown.
On 18 June 2015, Sun transferred to fellow Chinese Super League side Tianjin Teda. However, due to complications with the club's sponsor Quanjian, the transfer was suddenly put on hold and Sun returned to Jiangsu. On 12 January 2016, Sun transferred to China League One side Tianjin Quanjian for a record-breaking domestic transfer fee of an estimated ¥66 million. He made his debut and scored his first goal for the club on 13 March 2016 in a 3-0 win against Qingdao Huanghai.
International career
Sun was called up to the Chinese national team for the first time in March 2013. He made his debut on 22 March 2013 in a 1-0 win against Iraq during 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualification. He scored a dramatic game-tying goal on 21 July 2013 in a 3-3 draw against Japan at the 2013 EAFF East Asian Cup.
On 24 December 2014, Sun was named in China's squad for the 2015 AFC Asian Cup in Australia. In the team's second group match, he scored the winning goal as China won 2-1 against Uzbekistan to qualify for the knockout stage.
