Li Jianbin (Chinese: 李建滨; Pinyin: Li Jiànbīn; born 19 April 1989) is a Chinese footballer who currently plays for Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League.
Li Jianbin started his football career playing for Qingdao Beilaite's youth academy in 2001 and showed great athleticism that would attract the interests of second tier side Shanghai Stars in 2006. He would not break into the first team and decided to move to fellow second tier side Qingdao Hailifeng where he once again spent most of his time playing for their youth academy.
Li joined second tier side Chengdu Blades in May 2007 and would soon be sent to play for the club's satellite team Hong Kong First Division League side Sheffield United where he played five games and scored one goal. On his return from his loan period, Chengdu had become a top tier side and Li would go on to make his debut for the club on 5 July 2009 in a league game against Shandong Luneng which ended in a 2-1 win. Then manager Wang Baoshan would show a lot of faith in the young player and allowed him to feature within nine more league games at the end of the season. The next season saw the club relegated to the second tier when it was discovered that the club match-fixed several games in 2007 when they were promoted. Li would decide to remain faithful towards the club and decided to concentrate in establishing himself as a vital member within the team. He achieved this by playing in twenty-two league games and helped guide the club to second place within the league as well as immediate promotion back to the Chinese Super League.
