Zhu Guanghu (simplified Chinese: 朱广沪; traditional Chinese: 朱廣滬; pinyin: Zhū Guǎnghù; born September 25, 1949 in Shanghai, China) is a Chinese football coach and a former player. As a player, he was predominantly remembered for his time at Shanghai Football Team before going into management where he started off as a youth coach before becoming an assistant. He would get his chance at being a Head coach with Shenzhen Jianlibao where he won the 2004 Chinese Super League title. He would receive recognition for this accomplishment with the Chinese national football team position before leaving on 22 August 2007. Since then he has gone on to manage Wuhan Guanggu and Shaanxi Chanba.
Zhu Guanghu would play as a midfielder for the top tier club Shanghai Football Team. He played for the national B team on some occasions, but was never a top national player.
He chose to coach after retiring as a player and became more known to the public when the Jianlibao youth team, a sponsored Chinese youth team to study and play in Brazil, returned to China in 1998. The team produced promising future stars such as Li Jinyu and Li Tie. Later, Zhu joined the China national football team and served as an assistant to the English head coach, Bobby Houghton. The team then later failed to qualify for the Olympic football tournament. Houghton was replaced by Bora Milutinovic and Zhu left to coach the Shenzhen Football Team.
