About Sha Yibo

Born 1991. Sha Yibo is a Chinese association football player.

Sha Yibo (; born 7 January 1991 in Qingdao, Shandong) is a Chinese retired footballer who played as a defender.

Club career Sha was promoted to China League One club Qingdao Hailifeng first team squad in 2009. He made his senior debut on 2 May 2009, in a 2–0 away defeat against Liaoning Whowin, coming on as a substitute for Zhang Tiangang in the 81st minute. On 21 February 2010, Qingdao Hailifeng was banned from all future national matches organised by the Chinese Football Association and subsequently dissolved for match-fixing the 22 September 2007 league game against Chengdu Blades to intentionally lose 2-0. While Sha was never suspected of any wrongdoing he still became an unattached player, however he would sign a contract with Chinese Super League side Qingdao Jonoon on 12 March 2010.

On 27 June 2012, he scored his first and second senior goal in the third round of 2012 Chinese FA Cup, which ensured Qingdao Jonoon beat League Two side Guizhou Zhicheng 4–0.

At the end of the 2013 Chinese Super League campaign he would be part of the squad that was relegated. This would be followed by another relegation at the end of the 2016 China League One campaign. Throughout this, Sha would remain loyal towards the club as they re-branded themselves as Qingdao Hainiu. He would go on to play a vital part as the club won the third tier title and promotion at the end of the 2021 China League Two season. He would go on to achieve successive promotions as he helped guide the club to second in the 2022 China League One season and promotion back into the top tier.

After the 2025 season, Sha decided to retire from professional football.
