Gore joined the Manchester United academy in 2018, having previously been at Burnley from the age of eight.[5] He played as part of the 2022 FA Youth Cup winning United side. He was voted the United reserve team Player of the Year for the 2022–23 season.[6]

On 23 January 2024, he joined League One club Port Vale on a six-month loan.[11] David Flitcroft, the club's director of football, said that higher level clubs had pursued Gore but that United "selected us based on how we play and how we support young players".[12] He injured his quads on his debut at Vale Park, a 1–0 defeat to Portsmouth on 27 January.[13] Speaking in April, manager Darren Moore confirmed that Gore would not be returning to the club.[14] He underwent surgery on a dislocated shoulder in June 2024 and returned to training five months later.[15][16]

On 31 January 2025, Gore joined League One club Rotherham United on loan for the remainder of the 2024–25 season.[17] He played one game for the Millers before returning to Manchester to receive treatment for a hairline foot fracture.[18] Rotherham manager Steve Evans initially described it as "the strangest thing in the world" and that "we didn't do enough in training for him to have a sore nose let alone a sore foot".[19] Evans later stated that he had discovered Gore had suffered "a delayed reaction" and "he wants to play... he needs to be playing".[20] He returned to fitness in April.[21]

On 17 July 2025, Gore returned to Rotherham United on a season-long loan deal.[22]
