After missing most of the 2012–13 season with a serious ligament injury Hiwula scored 20 goals in 31 games for Manchester City U21s in the 2013–14 season. As a result, Hiwula signed his first professional contract with the club, on a two-year deal, keeping him until 2016.
On 2 October 2014, he joined Yeovil Town on loan until 5 January 2015. He made his professional debut on 4 October in Yeovil's 2–0 defeat against Milton Keynes Dons. On 8 November 2014, Hiwula scored his first goal for Yeovil with the only goal of the game in the FA Cup first round against Crawley Town. Hiwula returned to Manchester City, on 25 November 2014, having only scored one goal in his nine appearances in his time at Yeovil.
On 2 February 2015, Hiwula signed for League One side Walsall on an initial one-month youth loan. He scored three minutes into his debut for the Saddlers after coming on 66 minutes in on a 2–0 away win against Doncaster on 7 February 2015. His second goal came just three days later, on his home début, against Rochdale where he scored to put Walsall 3–0 up and it turned out to be the winner in a 3–2 win. After scoring three times in six appearance, Hiwula's loan spell was extended for another month. Hiwula scored his fourth goal on 3 March 2015, in a 1–0 win against his former club, Yeovil Town. Hiwula played in the final of Football League Trophy, coming on as a substitute for Tom Bradshaw in the 62nd minutes, in a 2–0 loss against Bristol City at Wembley. Hiwula's loan spell with Walsall was extended until the end of the season. Later in the 2014–15 season, Hiwula scored five more goals, including brace against Crawley Town and Bristol City.
