Club career

Hui Jiakang started his football career after graduating from the Shenzhen youth team in 2008. He quickly established himself within the Senior Shenzhen Xiangxue team after he made his debut against Shandong Luneng in a 2-1 defeat on July 5, in the 2008 Chinese Super League season. At the end of the season Hui Jiakang played thirteen league games and his club wanted to offer him a new long term contract, however he was dropped from the team after there was a dispute about pay with his new contract at the beginning of the 2009 football league season. Shenzhen held him to his remaining contract while the Chinese Football Association stipulated that Hui Jiakang is still contractually obliged to Shenzhen and cannot transfer unless it is to a foreign team.
Without any football for a whole season he went off to train with Hungarian side Ferencvárosi TC until Chinese second tier side Chengdu Blades took him at the beginning of the 2010 league season where he made his debut against Nanjing Yoyo on April 4, 2010 in a 3-0 victory. Throughout the season he would then play in fourteen league games as he aided the club to a runners-up spot within the division and promotion back into the top tier. The following season would see Hui back into the top tier where despite being a regular within the team he could not prevent the team finishing within the relegation zone at the end of the 2011 Chinese Super League season.
