David Hibbert is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on January 28, 1986 in Stafford, England, United Kingdom. David John Hibbert (born 28 January, 1986) was an English former footballer who was striker. He is currently working as manager in Stoke City.

In July 2006, he signed with Rotherham United on a six-month loan. He played 22 games with”the “Millers”, scoring two goals. After returning to Deepdale in the month of January 2007 He was then loaned for Bradford City on a one-month contract. It was his City debut during their 1-0 win over his former team Port Vale at Vale Park on January 6. The loan was extended to keep him in Valley Parade until April 2007. In the course of his stay in Valley Parade, however, Hibbert was injured in his ankle on February 28 and was unable to play again in”Bantams “Bantams” after tests revealed that he ruptured his ligaments. Hibbert remained in Bradford for another month to ensure that the manager in charge David Wetherall could see if the injury had improved before returning back to Preston on April.

Following a solid start to the 2008–09 campaign, Hibbert was sidelined with a broken nose picked up in training, before failing to start a game between October and March due to a foot injury. He finished the season having scored just three goals in 25 appearances. He spent the following summer undertaking physiotherapy sessions in an attempt to cure his long-standing foot injury.

Hibbert started the 2009–10 season in fantastic form, building a strong partnership with Nathan Elder. A brief spell on the sidelines through an achilles injury slowed up his impressive flurry of goals, but he then scored five on the trot, against Macclesfield Town, Bradford City, Chesterfield, Burton Albion and Dagenham & Redbridge; eventually hitting six goals in eight games. Though he suffered a groin injury late in the season and missed out on his target of twenty goals, his fifteen goals made him Shrewsbury’s top goalscorer for the second time in three seasons earned him the club’s Player of the Year award.

Born to a family of Eccleshall, Staffordshire, Hibbert began his career with League One Port Vale, climbing through the ranks at the age of nine. He played three games and seven substitute appearances during his the first season of his time at Vale and his promising debut season was hampered due to a head injury that he suffered in Milton Keynes Dons. The two goals he scored for the club came during his second appearance as a starter in a 3-1 victory over Luton Town on 26 February 2005. In June of 2005, Championship team Preston North End signed him to the terms of a contract. Since Hibbert was not yet at 23, he was not eligible for a contract the fee was set by a tribunal based on UEFA rules. Preston were required to give Port Vale PS35,000 up front and then add an additional PS10,000 for every 10 of his initial 50 games for Preston (Vale could only be paid the first installment due to his only 13 appearances for Preston) and an additional PS280,000 bonus in the event that Preston made it to the Premiership as well as the possibility of a 25% sell-on provision in case Hibbert were taken off the market. Vale president Bill Bratt was highly disappointed by the decision and said: “I believe he has potential, and he is worth a lot more than we have ended up with.” In the meantime, Preston manager Billy Davies said: “We are very fortunate to get this young lad because there were several clubs interested. We think his finishing is very good and – like David Nugent – he is very quick, but to be honest I think he is quite a way from first-team action.”
