Playing career
Liu Yue would start his career with Shandong Luneng and would quickly make a name for himself when he was part of the team that won the 1995 Chinese FA Cup.[https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/chinacup95.html China 1995 - FA Cup] at rsssf.org 6 Dec 1999 Retrieved 2012-12-01 This would soon see him selected for the Chinese national team where he was selected as the team's first choice left back within the 1996 Asian Cup.
