Club career

Early career

Born in Belfast,[1] Kearns began his grassroots career in the youth team of his local club St Oliver Plunkett.[3] He joined the youth team of English side West Ham United in July 2007, having been the player of the tournament at the Ballymena International Tournament in 2006.[4] He soon established himself in the under-18 team and went on to spend three years with the club from 2007 to 2010.[4][5]

Dundalk

After being released by West Ham in May 2010, Kearns signed for Dundalk of the League of Ireland Premier Division in August on a short-term contract.[2] He made his debut in a 1–1 draw with University College Dublin, before going on to make 12 appearances in his first season.[1] Kearns scored his first competitive goals for Dundalk with a hat-trick against Linfield in the Setanta Sports Cup on 14 February 2011.[1] Kearns played in Dundalk's seven games in their run to the Setanta Sports Cup Final, where the side lost 2–0 to Shamrock Rovers.[1]

Peterborough United

On 30 August 2011 he signed a three-year deal wiith English Championship club Peterborough United for an undisclosed fee.[6] He made his debut for Peterborough on 24 September 2011, in a 1–0 defeat against his former club, West Ham United, coming on as an 89th minute substitute for Lee Frecklington.[7] He made his first start for Peterborough on 17 December 2011 in a 1–0 victory at home to Coventry City and was named man of the match, also playing a part in the build up to the goal when laid the ball off to Paul Taylor, who assisted with Emile Sinclair's goal.[8] He finished his first season at Peterborough with 21 appearances.[7]

Kearns signed for League Two side York City on a one-month loan on 4 October 2012, making his debut on 6 October as a 66th minute substitute in a 0–0 draw at home to Rotherham United.[9][10] On 1 November 2012, the loan was extended for another two months.[11]

International career

Kearns represented Northern Ireland in a series of European U17 Championship qualifiers in March 2008. However, in 2010 he switched allegiances to the Republic of Ireland, going on to represent them at under-19,[12] under-21 and under-23 levels.[13][14][15] The IFA contested the player's decision to switch national allegiances.[16] He was capped once by the League of Ireland XI, playing in their 5–0 defeat to Celtic at Celtic Park on 31 July 2011.[17]
