Career & Clubs

Club career

Tottenham Hotspur

Dawkins joined the Tottenham Hotspur academy in 2004 and featured regularly in the reserves. He featured in the first team matchday squad once, as an unused sub under Martin Jol for a UEFA Cup game against Anorthosis Famagusta, but did not progress onto making a first-team appearance. On 1 June 2009, Dawkins was released from his Tottenham Hotspur contract and then failed a medical at RC Strasbourg.

Leyton Orient (loan)

He joined Leyton Orient on loan before the 2008–09 season started. His first team debut was delayed after picking up an ankle injury in a friendly match, coincidentally, against parent club Tottenham. He made his first league appearance on 16 August 2008, coming on as a substitute against Peterborough United, and made his cup debut in the Football League Trophy on 2 September where they beat Southend United 4–2. His loan period ended on 3 January 2009.

Return to Tottenham Hotspur

Dawkins later returned to Tottenham on a non-contract basis while recovering from injury. A contract depended upon his proven fitness at the start of the 2010–11 season. In August 2010, Dawkins went on trial with Celtic later deciding to continue to train with Tottenham, scoring in a training friendly against Milton Keynes Dons on 8 December. On 14 March 2011, Dawkins was rewarded with a contract by Tottenham Hotspur after impressing back at the club on trial, with his contract set to run until June 2013.
