Styles developed through the Burnley academy but failed to earn a professional contract and was released aged 16.[3]

Styles joined League One club Bury and made his professional senior team debut in their final game of the season against Southend United on 8 May 2016. He came on as a 75th-minute substitute for Anthony Dudley as the team won 3–2.[4] In making his debut, Styles became the first player born in the new millennium to make an appearance in the Football League.[5] Bury were later deducted three points after it was found Styles was not properly registered when he made his debut.[6]
