Career

Park Ji-soo would play for top tier club Incheon United's youth setup before he was promoted to their senior team where he signed his first professional contract at the start of the 2013 league season. Throughout the season he did not make any appearances for the team and was released from the club at the end of the season. This saw Park join K3 League club FC Uijeongbu for the 2014 league season before going on a practice match for K3 League club Gyeongnam FC where he showed potential and was signed by the team.
In January 2015, Park officially joined Gyeongnam FC and he would make his debut in a league game against Ansan Police on 22 March 2015 in a 0-0 draw. This would be followed by his debut goal for the club in a league match against Chungju on 5 July 2015 in a 1-1 draw. Park would establish himself as an integral part of the teams defence and go on to aid the club to win the 2017 K League Challenge division and promotion to the top tier. Park and Gyeongnam FC would continue their upward trajectory and the club surprisingly came runners-up in the 2018 K League 1 campaign.
On 20 February 2019, Park transferred to Chinese Super League side Guangzhou Evergrande. On 5 March 2019, he made his debut for the club in a 2–0 home win over Japanese side Sanfrecce Hiroshima in the 2019 AFC Champions League.
