Career

Dobson started his career as a youth player at Arsenal aged 8 before joining West Ham on 28 July 2015. Dobson, aged 17 at the time, was placed straight into the club's U21 side and played frequently during the 2015-16 season. At Arsenal, Dobson was played as a centre-back. However, much to the player's delight, West Ham trained him into a central midfielder, often playing in a holding or defensive role. He is a boyhood West Ham United fan and this helped in the decision of joining the club in 2015.
