David Wayne "Junior" Hoilett (born 5 June 1990) is a Canadian professional footballer who plays for Welsh club Cardiff City.
Born in Brampton, Ontario, Hoilett was part of the Blackburn Rovers academy set up since the age of 13. He was initially unable to obtain a work permit while in England, and as a result, Blackburn loaned him to German clubs to help the player earn one in the future.
Hoilett made his debut for SC Paderborn (on loan) against Kickers Offenbach, coming on as a substitute for Sven Lintjens in a 3–2 victory on 3 February 2008, aged 17. Hoilett's first match in the starting eleven was against 1899 Hoffenheim on 9 March 2008.
Hoilett scored his only goal of his loan campaign on 18 May 2008 against Borussia Mönchengladbach in what would be his final game for the club.
Paderborn were later relegated, ending the 2007–08 2. Bundesliga season in 17th position.
Hoilett was loaned to another German club in the 2. Bundesliga, FC St. Pauli, for the 2008–09 2. Bundesliga season. He made his debut for the Hamburg-based side against SpVgg Greuther Fürth on 22 August 2008. He scored six times during his loan campaign with braces against Alemannia Aachen and , as well as individual goals against 1860 München and 1. FC Kaiserslautern. His final game would come in the form of a 1–0 loss against Rot Weiss Ahlen on 3 May 2009. St. Pauli finished the season in eighth position.
