Born in Stoke, England youth international Dobbin joined Everton aged 11.

A skilful, pacey striker who combines intelligent movement with ruthlessness in front of goal, Dobbin was named Under-18s Player of the Season after hitting 11 goals in 16 league matches in 2019/20.

The campaign also saw Dobbin make his Everton Under-23s debut and sign a first professional contract with the Club.

He began 2020/21 brightly, scoring twice and assisting two goals in seven Under-18 outings, but a knee injury sustained in training checked Dobbin's progress in the second half of the campaign.

After undergoing a demanding rehabilitation programme, Dobbin returned fighting fit for the 2021/22 campaign and enjoyed a blistering run of goalscoring form during Everton Under-23s' pre-season games.

The teenage striker hit 10 goals across five matches – and saw his performances rewarded with a substitute appearance in the Everton First Team's friendly game against Manchester United in front of a 55,000-strong crowd at Old Trafford.

Dobbin continued to impress for Everton Under-23s in early part of the season and trained regularly with the Toffees' First Team.

He made his competitive senior debut in the Blues' 2-0 Premier League win over Norwich City in September 2021, coming on as a late substitute for Alex Iwobi at Goodison Park. Dobbin made a further three First-Team appearances in 2021/22.

For Everton Under-23s, he scored six goals and provided two assists in 18 Premier League 2 appearances.

Dobbin signed a new three-and-a-half-year contract with Everton in January 2022.

Dobbin's favourite Everton player is Richarlison, while he counts former Chelsea frontman Didier Drogba as his football hero.

Contracted until: June 2025
