On 17 August 2016, he was sent on a season-long loan to Eredivisie club FC Utrecht.[8] Five days later he made his professional debut for Jong FC Utrecht in the Eerste Divisie.[9] Moore played in his first match for the senior team on 16 September in a 5–1 defeat at home to Groningen.[9]

On 12 January 2018, he was sent on loan to League Two club Wycombe Wanderers until the end of the 2017–18 season.[3] At the end of the season, he was released by the Gunners.[10]

On 28 June 2018, he joined Plymouth Argyle. Moore started games early in the season but produced some disappointing performances and did not play again in the 2018–19 season after November. Moore played twice in cup games at the start of the following season before being listed for loan in October.[11] On 9 January 2020, it was announced that the Pilgrims had offered Moore a settlement to terminate his contract.[12] Later that month, he joined Colchester United on loan until the end of the season, but only made one appearance.[13] Moore was released by Plymouth at the end of the season.[14] In October 2020 he played for Salford City's development team in The Central League.[15]

As so he was also named in UEFA's team of the tournament.[19] On 20 July 2016, he was called up to the England Under-19 squad for the 2016 UEFA European Under-19 Championship in Germany. England eventually got to the semifinals of the Euros, where they went out by 2–1 to Italy.[20][21]
