Born in Salford, Grimshaw joined his local club Manchester City as a teenager.[3] In June 2018, he signed a new three-year deal with the club.[4] He was involved in a matchday squad for Manchester City for the first time in January 2019 as an unused substitute in an EFL Cup tie with Burton Albion.[5]

On 5 October 2020, he joined Belgian First Division B side Lommel on a season-long loan deal.[3] On 15 February 2021, he made his professional debut in a 1–1 draw with Westerlo.[7]
Grimshaw joined Blackpool on 1 July 2021 after signing a two-year contract, with the club having the option to extend it for a further twelve months.[8] He joined them on a free transfer as his Manchester City contract had expired.

Grimshaw returned to the starting line-up in Blackpool's 3–1 victory over Peterborough United on 18 December.[9][10]
On 4 July 2022, Grimshaw signed a three-year extension to his contract plus an option for a fourth year.[11]
