After spending his first season at Werder Bremen in the reserves, in the year the side achieved the double, Hunt made his first division debut on 18 September 2004, as a substitute against Hannover 96. On his first appearance in the starting line-up, against Borussia Mönchengladbach on 12 February 2005, he scored his first league goal, becoming Werder Bremen's youngest-ever goalscorer at the age of 18 years and 161 days.

Early in 2006, Hunt suffered a mysterious knee injury, which after some months was found to be bursitis. As a result, he missed the remainder of the season following the winter break. In November, he renewed his club link until 2010[1] and, on 3 March 2007, bagged a hat-trick in the 3-0 league win against VfL Bochum.[2] At that point, Werder moved to second in the league, but eventually finished second to VfB Stuttgart, with Hunt netting a career-best nine goals.

Despite playing youth football for Germany, Hunt also qualifies to play for England because of his English mother.[5] On 6 November 2009 was nominated for the Germany national football team for the two friendly games on 14 November 2009 against Chile national football team and on 18 November 2009 against Côte d'Ivoire national football team on 18 November 2009.
Scandal

In November 2006, Hunt was charged by UEFA for serious unsporting behaviour, after complaints of racist remarks in the second leg of the under-21 playoff against England. He was banned for two games.[7] However, he successfully appealed the decision shortly thereafter and the ban was dropped.
