From Dublin, Parrott started his youth career with Belvedere. In July 2017, Parrott joined Tottenham Hotspur for an undisclosed fee.[4] On 4 February 2019, on his 17th birthday, Parrott signed his first professional contract with Tottenham.[5] He made his first-team debut for Tottenham in the 3–2 International Champions Cup friendly win over Juventus on 21 July 2019.[6] On 24 September 2019, aged 17 years, 7 months and 20 days old, Parrott made his professional debut for Tottenham in their humiliating third round loss in the EFL Cup against Colchester United.[7] On 7 December 2019, aged 17 years, 10 months and 3 days old, Parrott made his Premier League debut under manager José Mourinho, in a 5–0 win against Burnley.[8] On 8 February 2020, Parrott signed a new 3.5-year contract with Spurs until the summer of 2023.[9]

On 6 September 2019, Parrott scored on his under-21 debut in a Under-21 European 2021 qualifier against Armenia.[10] He followed that by getting a brace of goals in the next fixture against Sweden.[11] His third under 21 appearance was a 0–0 draw with Italy in which he was sent off after being shown a second yellow card following an altercation with Italy's Moise Kean, who received a straight red card for pushing Parrott in the face.[12]

Parrott made his senior Republic of Ireland debut on 14 November 2019, starting in a 3–1 friendly win against New Zealand and providing an assist for Ireland's second goal of the game which was Sean Maguire's first international goal.[13]
