[6] He made his debut, aged 18, for Crewe in a League Two match against Stockport County at Gresty Road on 30 April 2011, which ended in a 2–0 win for Crewe. He came on as a late substitute for Mat Mitchel-King. [7]
He scored his first Crewe goal in a 1–1 draw at Oldham Athletic on 21 September 2013. [8]
On 9 May 2017, Crewe announced that Turton had been offered a new contract, [9] though manager David Artell gave a 22 May deadline for a decision otherwise the offer would be rescinded. [10] On 23 May Turton reported for training but had not yet clarified his decision to Artell.

In June 2017, Turton signed a two-year contract with League One side Blackpool. [13] He made his Blackpool debut in the club's season-opening fixture at Bradford City on 5 August 2017, [14] and scored his first goal for the club in a 3-3 draw at Doncaster Rovers two weeks later. [15]
