Dalian Zhixing Football Club (Chinese: 大连智行足球俱乐部) is a Chinese professional football club based in Dalian, Liaoning, that competes in China League One, the second tier of Chinese football. Dalian Zhixing plays its home matches at the Jinzhou Stadium, located within Jinzhou District.

History

The team was founded in 2021 as Dalian Duxing Football Club (Chinese: 大连读行足球俱乐部).[1] Upon establishment, the team has strong connection with the dissolved Dalian Shide, as the coaching staff consisted of former Shide players.[2] The team attracted many Dalian players who previously played at local teams such as Dalian Aerbin and Dalian Transcendence, many of which had Chinese Super League appearances.[3]

In the 2022 season, Dalian Duxing started in the Chinese Champions League. Dalian Duxing were ranked first in group I of the regional competitions, and advanced into the final round, where they finished third, and went on to win the promotion play-offs to acquire promotion into China League Two.

At the beginning of the 2023 season, the team changed to the current neutralised name, as requested by the Chinese Football Association,[4] and signed more players from Dalian.[5] Dalian Zhixing finished second in the 2023 China League Two season, to gain promotion into China League One. However, the investors of the team, the Dalian Shanhai Group, were involved in illegal fundraising cases.[6] This meant that the club lost their funding, and was put into a forced auction in December 2023.[7] On 15 December, it was confirmed that Dalian Tongshun Construction Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 大连统顺建设有限公司), a company that has been running an amateur team Dalian Tongshun Construction F.C. since 2014, completed the acquisition.[8]
