In 2021, Oliver moved to Real Madrid in a transfer worth $45 million.

Early life
Oliver was born in Godalming, Surrey, a town in the southeast of England. Oliver began playing for nearby Aldershot Town's academy before moving to Manhattan, New York at the age of eleven. While there, he joined the New York City FC academy. After impressing the training staff during a trial at Manchester United, Oliver joined the club's U16 side.

Bayern Munich
In April 2017, Oliver left Manchester United to join Bayern Munich, playing for their u19 squad. Oliver quickly established himself as one of the academy's best players and was soon promoted to the first team.

2017–18 season
Oliver made his first appearance for Bayern on February 6, 2018, as a substitute in a 0–6 win against Paderborn in the DFB-Pokal quarter-final.

On April 7, Oliver scored his first Bundesliga goal in a 1–4 win against Augsburg with a header from a set piece by Sebastian Rudy.

2021–22 season
Oliver missed the beginning of his first season at Real Madrid due to injury. On November 6, 2021, he made his return in a win against Rayo Vallecano as a substitute in the 83rd minute.

International career
Oliver has represented both England and the United States at the youth international level.

In November 2017, Oliver was part of the squad that won the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup in France. He scored two goals in the competition, one of which was against Spain in the final. He won the FIFA U-17 World Cup Golden Ball and was named as the best player of the tournament due to his outstanding performance.

In September 2018, Oliver rejected a call up to the England U21 team and declared his intent to play for the United States: "I fell in love with this country and its people, so the USA is where my heart lies."

On August 1, 2021, Oliver sustained a serious ankle injury in the CONCACAF Gold Cup final against Mexico after a tackle by Rodríguez. Oliver underwent successful surgery the next day, and was expected to make a full recovery.
