Club career
Dai Lin started his professional football career with Liaoning Zhongyu in 2005 with his debut match against Changsha Ginde F.C. on the 14th of April in a 2-0 win.[1] A versatile player Dai Lin quickly established himself within the team throughout the league season and scored his first goal against Tianjin Teda on July 16 in a 1-0 win.[2] He remained with the team for several further seasons when he helped Liaoning to several mid-table positions until the 2008 Chinese Super League saw Liaoning relegated after a disappointing season when they were relegated on the last day of the season.[3]
Dai Lin attracted interest from Bosnian side FK Slavija while his transfer listed price was £356,212. After deciding not to renew his contract with Liaoning it was believed that he would train with them for the start of the new season while the transfer went through.[4] Dai Lin however went to Shanghai Shenhua half way through the 2009 Chinese league season after only two months with the Bosnian team at a very surprising cut-price deal that saw him go for just £44,000.[4] At Shanghai he was quickly inserted into their team and would make his debut in a league game on August 2, 2009 against Jiangsu Sainty where he came on as a substitute for Aleksander Rodić in a 2-2 draw.[5] After that game he would quickly go on to become a regular member of the team and score his first goal for the club against Tianjin Teda F.C. in a league game on September 20, 2009 in a 4-0 victory, however his poor disciplinary record saw him limited to only twelve games throughout the season.[6]
International career
Dai Lin was included as part of the squad in the Football at the 2008 Summer Olympics - Men's tournament, he however did not play in any of the games.[7] Despite his limited playing time with the youth set-up he would eventually graduate to the mens senior team once he became a integral member of the Shanghai's defence and go on to make his debut in a friendly against Latvia on November 11, 2010 where he came on as a substitute in a 1-0 victory.[8]
