Club career

Li Yi'nan played for the Shenyang Haishi youth team until he was promoted to the senior side during the 1999 league season. Under the teams Head coach Valeri Nepomniachi Li began to establish himself within the team during the 2000 league season and even though Valeri Nepomniachi left at the end of the season Li Yi'nan still continued to progress as a regular within the team.

; however this move turned out to be a disaster because Li Yi'nan struggled to even establish himself within the team, before the club withdrew from the league for unfair treatment leaving him without a club to play for.
