Son of Football Agent Willie McKay and twin brother of Leeds striker Jack McKay, he started his football career in Rossington before joining the Doncaster Rovers Academy, when nine, and progressing through their youth teams, while he was at Hill House School. He signed professional forms, when just seventeen, on 18th August 2014, after impressing with the club's Under-Eighteen team. He went on to start and play a full game for Rovers in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on 1st September 2015 which saw Rovers 5-3 winners on penalties after neither team had scored after extra-time. He was subsequently loaned to Ilkeston FC for a month, on 8th August 2015. On 13th November 2015 he was similarly loaned to Gainsborough Trinity to gain first team experience and returned on 1st January 2016. Steve Evans, Manager of Leeds United, signed both twins on 11th January 2016. After starting fifteen games for the United Under-Twenty-Three Development side in the 2015-16 season, he was taken by new Manager, Garry Monk on a fortnight pre-season training camp followed by games against Irish teams before the start of the 2016-17 season. He came off the bench after sixty minutes to play for half-an-hour in a 2-1 win over Shelbourne on 13th July 2016 at Tolka Park and three days later he replaced Kyle Bartley at half-time as United beat Shamrock Rovers 3-0 at Tallaght Park.
