Taylor played for Seaton Carew before joining the academy at Sunderland at the age of nine following a series of trials. He won two caps for the England U15 squad in December 2017.[2] He signed his first professional contract in June 2021, which would keep him at the Stadium of Light until 2024.[3] Taylor made his first-team debut on 10 August 2021, in a 2–1 win at Port Vale in an EFL Cup first round fixture.[4]

On 28 July 2022, Taylor signed for his hometown club Hartlepool United on a season-long loan.[5] Taylor's loan was cut short on 1 January 2023.[6]

On 17 May 2024, Sunderland announced the player would be released in the summer when his contract expired.[7]

On 16 July 2024, Taylor signed for League Two club Harrogate Town on a two-year contract following a successful trial period.[8] Taylor scored his first senior goal in a 3–3 draw at Accrington Stanley on 17 August 2024.[9] He followed up his successful start to his Harrogate career with goals in Yorkshire derbies against Doncaster Rovers[10] and Bradford City.[11]
