Career

Banks comes from Linlithgow, West Lothian, and attended the Scottish Football Association performance school at Graeme High School in Falkirk.[3] He joined Dundee United at youth level from Linlithgow Rose Boys Club in 2013. After being top scorer for the United under-17 team the previous season, he signed his first professional contract with the club in 2018.[4]

In February 2019, Banks joined League Two club Clyde on loan for the rest of the 2018–19 season,[5] quickly becoming a "fans' favourite".[6] He scored the club's goal of the season against Peterhead and was man of the match against Annan Athletic in the match that secured Clyde's promotion from League Two.[7]

After impressing manager Robbie Neilson in pre-season matches,[8] Banks made his Dundee United debut as a substitute against Heart of Midlothian in the Scottish League Cup in July 2019.[9]

In January 2020, he signed a three year contract with Premier League team Crystal Palace.[10] Later in January, Palace loaned Banks to Alloa Athletic until the end of the 2019–20 season.[11]
