After scoring fourteen goals in the Blackpool youth team in the first part of the 2019–20 season, first-team manager Simon Grayson invited Weston to travel with the squad to Ipswich Town on 23 November. He was taken out of school for the journey. He was then named on the bench in the Seasiders' following match, a home tie against Scunthorpe United in the EFL Trophy on 27 November.[2][3] He made his professional debut on 1 December, in the final minute of normal time of Blackpool's 3–1 victory over Maidstone United in the second round of the FA Cup.[4]
Weston joined Rangers on 31 July 2020 on a three-year contract for an undisclosed fee, reported to be £250,000.[5][6] He initially played for the club's youth team; however, he made his debut for Rangers by replacing Steven Davis as a 71st-minute substitute during a 3–1 win over Heart of Midlothian on 14 May 2022.[7] He was loaned to Partick Thistle in July 2022.[8]
