Club career
[edit]Reading
[edit]Born in Edinburgh while his father was representing Hibernian, Holsgrove returned to England a few months later, and was a Reading youth graduate.[2] On 13 February 2017, he signed his first professional contract with the club.[3] On 26 February 2019, after already becoming a regular with the club's under-23 squad, he agreed to a new deal until 2021.[4]
On 27 August 2019, after spending the pre-season with the first team, Holsgrove was loaned to Spanish Segunda División B side CD Atlético Baleares on a season-long deal.[5] He made his senior debut on 1 September, coming on as a second-half substitute for Marc Rovirola in a 1–0 home win against UD Las Palmas Atlético.[6]
Holsgrove scored his first senior goal on 3 November 2019, netting ATB's third in a 3–1 home success over Real Oviedo Vetusta.[7] He returned to the Royals in July 2020, despite Atlético Baleares attempting to extend his loan deal to cover for the play-offs, as the season was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[8]

Holsgrove made his debut in the Spanish top tier on 8 January 2021, replacing Miguel Baeza at half-time in a 0–4 home loss against Villarreal CF.[12]
Paços de Ferreira
