Along with his teammates Wu Pingfeng and Li Jianhua, Jiang transferred to fellow Chinese Super League side Guangzhou R&F in January 2013.[15] He made his debut for the club against Liaoning Whowin on 9 March 2013 in a 4–2 loss.[16] This was followed by his first goal for the club against Dalian Aerbin on 25 May 2013 in a 3–2 win where Jiang went on to score a brace.[17]
