Eddy Juan Francis,[1][2][3][4] Aidi Fulangxisi (Chinese: 艾あい迪すすむ·弗どる朗ろう西にし斯; pinyin: Àidí Fúlǎngxīsī; born 17 December 1990) or simply Aidi, is a Chinese professional footballer who plays as a defender for Chinese Super League club Shanghai Shenhua.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Shanghai, Aidi's mother is Chinese and his father is Tanzanian. He joined Genbao Football Academy when he was ten years old. In the end of 2005, he joined Shanghai East Asia with whole Genbao Football Academy team and started his career. But after his first season, he was downsized and moved to Shanghai Shenhua. In 2008, he moved to China League Two club Suzhou Trips after unhappiness with Shanghai Shenhua, but had no appearance because of problems regarding his registration. In 2009 Suzhou Trips quit China League Two, Aidi signed on loan to Ningbo Huaao for a year.[5] After his loan finished, he moved to China League One club Shanghai East Asia immediately, returned to the start of his football career.[6]

On 20 January 2012, Shanghai East Asia swapped Aidi with Luis Cabezas of Chinese Super League side Dalian Aerbin.[7] He was loaned back to Shanghai East Asia for one year in February 2012.[8] However, he failed to establish himself within the team and made just three appearances (all came on as substitute) in the 2012 league season. On 8 March 2014, Aidi made his debut for Dalian Aerbin in the 2014 Chinese Super League against Hangzhou Greentown, coming on as a substitute for Zhu Xiaogang in the 77th minute.[9]

On 29 January 2017, Portuguese club Boavista signed Aidi on a one-and-a-half-year contract. This transfer is said to come through a partnership with the Chinese Football Association.[10]

On 7 February 2018, Shanghai Greenland Shenhua announced that Aidi would join the club and play in the Chinese Super League and AFC Champions League.[11] He would make his debut on 26 February 2018 in the Chinese FA Super Cup against Guangzhou Evergrande Taobao F.C. that ended in a 4–1 defeat.[12] This was followed by his first league appearance for the club on 2 March 2018 against Changchun Yatai F.C. that resulted in a 1–1 draw.[13]

International career

[edit]

Aidi played 27 minutes for the China under-14 team in the 2004 AFC U-14 Championship; he is the first mixed-race player for the China national football teams at all age level.[14] Because of his Tanzanian background, he is also available to represent Tanzania.
