Holland joined the academy of Premier League club Everton at the age of nine.[4] He progressed through several age groups and signed his first professional contract in January 2016.[5][4]

West Ham United

On 22 January 2017, Holland joined West Ham United, signing a three-and-a-half-year deal. He made his first team debut on 19 September 2017 in a 3–0 EFL Cup third round home win over Bolton Wanderers, coming on as a 61st-minute substitute. Holland went on to feature regularly for the club's U23 side in both Premier League 2 and the EFL Trophy, and in May 2019 signed a new three-year contract keeping him at West Ham until 2022.[6] On 4 December 2019, he made his Premier League debut as a 71st-minute substitute in a 2–0 defeat away to Wolverhampton Wanderers.[7]

On 8 January 2020, Holland joined EFL League One club Oxford United on loan for the remainder of the 2019–20 season. He scored his first senior professional goal on 4 February 2020 in a 3–2 FA Cup fourth round defeat at home to Newcastle United.[8] Holland's loan spell was cut short in March 2020 after sustaining a hamstring injury which ruled him out for the remainder of the season.[9] In July 2021, he returned to Oxford United for a second loan spell ahead of the 2021–22 season.[10] Following his return to West Ham at the conclusion of the season, Holland was one of several players released by the club.[11]
