Biography:
Tigers Bay raised striker who captained Northern Ireland at underage level before earning a first senior call-up in November 2021. He made his debut as a substitute against Lithuania, still a month short of his 18th birthday.
During a loan spell with Wycombe Wanderers in 2023/24 Taylor had heartbreak in the final of the Bristol Street Motors Trophy. Having come on as an 87th minute sub with Wanderers trailing 1-0 to Peterborough he scored an equaliser which looked to have taken the match to extra-time only for the Posh to score again in injury time.
In August 2025 Taylor signed for Blackpool on a 4-year deal for a fee believed to be approaching £1,000,000.
