Hopkins, a striker who can also play on the right wing,[3] was a prolific goalscorer at schoolboy level with Liverpool.[4] He then joined Everton's youth system, was part of their 2002 FA Youth Cup Final,[5] and continued scoring goals in the under-age teams. He signed professional forms in 2005,[3] and made his debut for England under-20, on 16 August 2005 as a substitute in a 4–0 defeat to their Russian counterparts.[6] He scored only infrequently for Everton's reserve team,[3] and spent a month on loan at League Two club Darlington, during which he made his debut in the Football League, on 7 January 2006 in a 3–2 win against Notts County, and scored once.[7] At the end of the 2005–06 season he was released by Everton.[8]
