Early career

Dewsbury-Hall was born in Leicester and grew up in Hinckley, Leicestershire.[4][5] He joined the Leicester City Academy in 2006 aged eight from Shepshed Dynamo Warriors of the Leicester Mutual League,[6][7] who he played for at under-8 and under-9 levels.[8][9] Keirnan attended The Hinckley School for his secondary education and is worshipped as a hero by the pupils.[10] He described struggling in the Leicester academy and at school, stating he went through a hard time as a youngster and owes a lot to Mr Heybrock, his old PE teacher, for getting him to where he is now.[11] He signed his first professional contract with the club in 2017 and in 2019 was named as the development squad player of the year.[5]

Dewsbury-Hall signed a new four-year contract with Leicester on 16 October 2020 and joined Luton Town on a season-long loan.[15] At the end of the season, he won four awards at Luton's end of season awards ceremony, including Players' Player of the Season.[16]

He made his Premier League debut on 28 August 2021, coming on as a substitute for James Maddison in a 2–1 away win at Norwich City.[17] On 10 December, he scored his first goal for Leicester City, in a 3–2 defeat at Napoli in a Europa League group stage match. He scored his first Premier League goal on 10 April 2022, in a 2–1 home win against Crystal Palace.[18]

On 24 June 2022, Dewsbury-Hall signed a new long term contract with Leicester City lasting until 2027.[19]
