Club career
Wei Shihao started his football career when he joined Shandong Luneng's youth academy in 2005. He was deemed as a high potential player and was listed in a Bleacher Report article titled "Eight Teenagers Who Should Be on Every Big Club's Radar." In December 2012, he was recommended to Eredivisie giants Ajax for a trial along with Wang Chengkuai by former Ajax manager and youth scout Henk ten Cate, who managed for Shandong during the 2012 season. However, Shandong subsequently refused Ajax's trial request, forcing Wei to stay at the club.
In September 2013, Wei refused to sign a professional contract with Shandong and joined Segunda Divisão side Boavista's youth academy on a free transfer. He signed a new two-year contract with the club in June 2014 and was then promoted to the first team. On 14 September 2014, Wei made his debut for the club in a 1-0 win against Académica de Coimbra, coming on as a substitute for Christian Pouga in the 50th minute.
On 15 July 2015, Wei transferred to Segunda Liga side Feirense. He made his debut for the club on 30 August 2015 in a 1-1 draw against Sporting Covilhã. On 31 December 2015, Wei transferred to fellow second tier side Leixões. He made his debut for the club on 27 January 2016 in a 4-0 loss against Belenenses in the 2015-16 Taça da Liga. On 25 February 2017, Wei extended his contract with the club until 30 June 2018 and was loaned to Chinese Super League side Shanghai SIPG for the 2017 season. He made his debut and scored his first goal for the club on 7 April 2017 in a 2-1 win against Shandong Luneng.
