Club career

Li Zhuangfei began his football career playing for the various Shandong Luneng youth teams and showed great potential by being called up for the Chinese U-17 team that won the 2004 AFC U-17 Championship. Li, however, struggled to break into the Shandong senior team and was instead loaned out to the newly promoted top-tier side Xiamen Lanshi in 2006. He made his league debut for Xiamen on March 18, 2006, against Shanghai Shenhua in a 2-2 draw where he came on as a substitute for Zou Yougen. After the game Li gradually became the first-choice defensive midfielder in the team, and the club's manager Gao Hongbo hailed him as the most promising Chinese star among his age.
After his loan period with Xiamen ended Li joined top-tier side Wuhan Guanggu on a deal that brought him to Wuhan with several other Shandong Luneng players that included Ren Yongshun, Guo Mingyue and Deng Xiaofei. However, due to some bad relationship with local players, most Shandong players in the team were purged at the end of the season except Deng Xiaofei.
He transferred to second-tier club Jiangsu Sainty in the 2008 league season where he was awarded No.10 jersey and played in six games and scored one goal to help aid Jiangsu to the division title as well as promotion to the top tier. Within the top tier Li saw even less playing time and only made one appearance throughout the season as the club finished in mid-table. This saw Li decide to move to top-tier club Qingdao Jonoon half-way through the 2010 league season where he made his debut for the club in a league game on July 18, 2010, against Changsha Ginde, which ended in a 2-0 victory for Qingdao.
In 2010, Li signed for Qingdao Jonoon. Li was loaned to China League One side Yunan Lijiang for half season on 10 July 2017.
In February 2018, Li transferred to League Two side Zibo Sunday.
