Overton spent time in the youth sides at both Peterborough United and Norwich City. Overton was also a talented tennis player and had to choose between following a football or tennis career. His initial focus had been on tennis and he did not play much football before he was 13 and began attending Hethersett Academy in Norfolk.[2][3] From the age of 14 Overton focused more on football. He signed a professional contract with Peterborough in May 2022.[4]
Overton made his professional football debut as a 77th minute substitute for Ricky-Jade Jones in Peterborough's 2–0 EFL Cup first round win at Home Park against Plymouth Argyle on 10 August 2022.[5]
