Club career

In 2011, Li Fang started his senior football career with China League Two club Sichuan FC as a forward. He moved to Terceira Divisão side Pombal in December 2011 and played three matches for Pombal in the 2011-12 season. Li returned to Sichuan in June 2012 and then transferred to Segunda Liga side Sporting Covilhã in August 2012. On 28 November 2012, he made his debut for Covilhã in a league match against União da Madeira where he coming on as a substitute for Hugo Moreira in the 86th minute.[1] He left Covilhã at the end of 2012/13 league season.

Li joined China Super League side Chongqing Lifan in the 2016 season.[5] He made his debut in a 2016 Chinese FA Cup match against Tianjin Quanjian with a 4–0 away defeat, coming on for Yang Yun in the 70th minute.[6]
