history
The association was founded in February 2009 under the name Hubei Greenery. Its predecessor club, Wuhan Guanggu , resigned from the senior class in October 2008 on the grounds of unfair punishment after the club had a dispute with the Chinese Football Association over the clubs' behavior in a league game against Bejing Guoan on September 27, 2008 , in which a Scuffle broke out. Due to their elimination, they could not register and participate in any professional tournaments. However, due to the lack of representation of the Hubei teams within the Chinese football system, the Hubei Province Football Association decided to establish a new team to represent Hubei and used the Wuhan U-19 team and the Hubei youth team as the basis for the squad. A new football club was formed on February 26, 2009 when Hubei Greenery officially registered with the Chinese Football Association and competed at the lowest level of the professional football system in the third division. The newly founded club was able to move up to the second-rate League One in the first year, where it quickly established itself in the upper part of the table. 2012 followed the promotion to the highest Chinese league.
By December 14, 2011, the Zall Group took ownership of the club and renamed it Wuhan Zall Football Club. In addition, the colors of the teams were again orange, these were already the club colors of the previous club.
In 2015, the soccer club was sold to a private company owned by chairman Yan Zhi and his family for 20 million yuan .
