Club career

Aston Villa

[edit | edit source]

Robinson is a product of the Aston Villa youth team.[5] He made his Villa debut on 24 September 2013 in the League Cup third round in a 0–4 home defeat by Tottenham Hotspur, replacing Aleksandar Tonev for the final eight minutes.[6] His Premier League debut came on 19 April 2014, replacing Andreas Weimann for the last five minutes of a goalless draw with Southampton at Villa Park,[7] and he made three further substitute appearances that season.

Loan to Preston North End

[edit | edit source]

Robinson was loaned to Preston North End of League One[8] on a one-month deal on 16 September 2014 and made his debut that night as a substitute against a Chesterfield side featuring fellow Villa loanee Daniel Johnson.[9] His first professional goal came on 28 October. He opened a 2–0 win at Leyton Orient by converting Chris Humphrey's cross.[10] On 10 November Robinson scored a hat-trick against Havant & Waterlooville in a 3–0 away win in the first round of the FA Cup.[11] Following a successful spell with Preston, during which he scored five goals in 11 league and cup appearances, Robinson was recalled by Aston Villa on 25 November, despite his loan having been extended until January 2015.[12]

Robinson returned to Preston on loan for the rest of the 2014–15 season on transfer deadline day, 2 February 2015.[13]

Loan to Bristol City

[edit | edit source]

On 7 August 2015, Robinson joined Bristol City on loan for the 2015–16 season.[14] He scored his first goal for the club in a 3–1 defeat to Luton Town in the League Cup four days later.[15] His loan with City was cut short on 2 January 2016 after falling out of the first team, having made no appearances since October.[16]
