Zheng Zhi

}}

Zheng Zhi (; born 20 August 1980) is a Chinese professional football manager and former player. As a player, Zheng played most of his career for Chinese Super League club Guangzhou FC, becoming their captain and serving also as their caretaker manager in two stints.

After starting his career as a defender, Zheng was later moved into a central midfield role by then head coach Zhu Guanghu at Shenzhen Jianlibao and experienced immediate success there by winning the 2004 league title with the club. A move to Shandong Luneng Taishan saw a prolific goal scoring period in his career and he soon became the captain of the Chinese national team, which then led to moves to Charlton Athletic and Celtic. He moved back to China in 2010 and joined what was then Guangzhou Evergrande, making over 300 appearances as captain while helping the club win all major trophies a Chinese club could compete for, including Chinese Super League for a record eight times and the AFC Champions League twice, the only Chinese club to have ever won the continental title.
