Club career

Sun Zhaoliang went to Portugal for further training as a part of the Chinese Football Association's Project in 2011. He played for Pombal, Real Massamá and Sacavenense's youth academy between 2011 and 2015. Sun made his senior debut with Campeonato de Portugal club Pinhalnovense in the 2015–16 season. He moved to fellow Campeonato de Portuga side União Torreense in July 2016.

On 24 January 2017, Sun returned to China and signed a contract with his hometown club Liaoning F.C. in the Chinese Super League.[1] He made his debut for Liaoning on 21 April 2017 in a 2–1 away defeat against Guangzhou Evergrande as the benefit of the new rule of the league that at least one Under-23 player must be in the starting line-up and was substituted off in the 18th minute.[2] In January 2018, his former club Changchun Yatai submitted a claim to the Chinese Football Association for his ownership.[3]
