[edit] Club career

[edit] West Ham United

Hines was born in Jamaica and grew up in the East End of London.[3] He had been playing youth and regular reserve team football for West Ham United before being spotted by Coventry City manager Chris Coleman, playing in a game for the reserves.[4]

Hines had been on trial with Bury before he signed on loan for Coventry City on 27 March 2008.[5] He was given first-team squad number 9,[6] and made his first appearance in the 3–1 home defeat of Plymouth Argyle on 29 March.[7] He scored his first goal in his second game for Coventry City on 1 April in a 1–1 draw with Sheffield Wednesday.[8]

Hines made his first team debut for West Ham United against Macclesfield Town in a League Cup second round match on 27 August, scoring a goal.[9] Hines missed much of the 2008–09 season with a knee injury but signed a new contract in March 2009, keeping him at the club until summer 2010.[10] After playing in pre-season for the 2009–10 season, Hines was in the matchday squad for several matches and had played against Liverpool in September.[11] He scored his first league goal for West Ham when he scored a 93rd minute winner in a 2–1 victory over Aston Villa on 4 November 2009.[12] Hines' 2009–10 season came to an end in January 2010 following an injury to his knee which required surgery.[13] He returned to first-team football, after nearly a year out, on 30 November in a 4–0 win in the League Cup against Manchester United.[14]

[edit] Burnley

On 18 August 2011 Hines signed for Burnley for a fee to be set by a tribunal due to his age. The fee was estimated to be in the region of £250,000.[15][16]

[edit] International career

On 10 February 2009, Hines was called into the Jamaica team for their friendly international against Nigeria on 11 February.[17] The game finished 0–0 and Hines did not play. Despite having been selected in a Jamaican squad, on 1 October, Hines was called-up for the England under-21 team for a game against the Macedonia under 21 team on 9 October, played at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry.[18] Hines came on as a second-half substitute, for Theo Walcott, and scored twice on his under-21 debut, in their 6–3 victory.[19]
