I’m a former Premier League star who made my England debut when I replaced Harry Kane but now I’m semi-pro at 30
THIS former Premier League star made his England debut when replacing Harry Kane.
And he now plies his trade as a semi-pro after turning 30 in October.
Robert Hall is a versatile forward who began his pro career with West Ham in 2011.
The same year saw him making his U19s debut for England, coming on as a sub for now-Three Lions captain Kane.
But Hall only made one Premier League appearance for the Hammers before spending time on loan at Oxford United, MK Dons, Birmingham and Bolton.
Wanderers ended up making his move permanent in 2013, with Hall going on to make 31 appearances for the club in the Championship.

He then spent two seasons on loan in League One with MK Dons before sealing a transfer to Oxford United in 2016.
Hall flourished in England’s third tier with 19 goals in 98 games.
He then spent time at Forest Green in League Two before dropping into non-league with Barnet.
And last summer Hall moved from pro football into a semi-pro lifestyle by signing for National League South outfit Hampton & Richmond Borough.
