Mooney began his career with Aston Villa, turning professional in February 2017.[4] He moved on loan to Cheltenham Town in August 2018.[5] He made his debut on 1 September 2018, in the English Football League, scoring his first goal a week later.[6][7]
He left Aston Villa at the end of the 2018–19 season, signing for Hereford in October 2019.[8][9] In March 2020 he said that he hoped his partnership with new teammate Lenell John-Lewis would allow him to score more goals, and for the team to win more games.[10] In July 2020 it was reported that Mooney had accepted an offer to return to a club in the Football League, although Hereford manager Josh Gowling wanted him to stay at the club.[11] On 3 August 2020 he signed a one-year contract with Scunthorpe United.[12] On 16 October 2020 he returned to Hereford on loan.[13] He was one of 17 players released by Scunthorpe at the end of the 2020–21 season.[14] In August 2021 he joined Leamington.[15]
His father is former professional footballer Tommy Mooney.[5]
