Club career

Chu was a member of the Sun Hei squad that won five trophies (League, Silver Shield, League Cup, FA Cup and Hong Kong Football Sevens) during the 2004–05 season. He scored a total of three goals for Sun Hei in the 2008–09 Hong Kong First Division League season as the club finished 5th in the league table. He did however assist the club to win the 2008–09 Hong Kong League Cup.[1]

He played as a midfielder for Shatin but in the early season he was plagued by injuries. On 24 October 2009, he started his first game for Shatin and promptly scored a hat-trick, one of them a bicycle kick, and helped his team beat Tai Po 4:1 to register Shatin's first win of the season. Chu was also named the match's Most Valuable Player.[2] Chu in total scored 5 goals for Shatin but the club finished 9th and was relegated at the end of the season. At the end of the season, he was selected as a member of the Hong Kong League XI to play against Birmingham City in the Xtep Cup.

Chu moved to Kitchee after Shatin was relegated at the end of the 2009–10 season. In the penultimate match against Tai Chung, Chu scored a hat-trick and helped secured a 7:1 win for Kitchee.[3] Chu finished the season having scored 5 goals for Kitchee and the club duly won its first league title in 47 years, allowing the club to play in both the 2011 Barclays Asia Trophy and 2012 AFC Cup. Chu was named the Best Eleven of the 2010–11 Hong Kong First Division League season.[4]

After South China's decision to voluntarily relegate following the 2016–17 Hong Kong Premier League season, Chu's contract was terminated. Although he tried to find work with other clubs, his efforts were unsuccessful. Ultimately, Chu announced his retirement on 8 August 2017.[5]
