Queen of the South

Reilly is a product of the youth policy of Dumfries club Queen of the South. He had been figuring in the 2010 pre season for Queens, when it was announced that he had signed a professional contract. Reilly made his competitive first team debut on 31 July 2010, in a 5–1 Scottish League Cup first round victory against Dumbarton, as an 83rd-minute substitute for Derek Holmes, Reilly marked the occasion by scoring his side's fifth goal. His league debut was an 86th-minute substitute's appearance in the season's opening 1–0 away defeat at Dundee.

On 23 June 2015, it was announced that Reilly had signed a three-year deal with Scottish Premiership side Heart of Midlothian. An undisclosed development fee was paid to Queen of the South. The announcement quoted Reilly since his debut as a 17-year-old as having scored 44 first team goals at Queens in over 140 games including over 80 starting appearances. He scored his first goal for Hearts on 12 August 2015 in a 2–0 win against Motherwell from the penalty spot.

In June 2016, Reilly joined Scottish Championship side Dunfermline Athletic on a year-long loan deal. Reilly previously worked with Dunfermline's manager Allan Johnston at Queen of the South, where he helped the side to win the Scottish Second Division in the 2012–13 season. Reilly's first appearance for the Pars came in a 3–0 victory at East End Park in the Scottish League Cup, with his first goal coming in a 1–2 defeat to Hibernian at Easter Road. With the arrival of former Queen of the South strike-partner Nicky Clark from Bury at the end of August 2016, his remaining appearances were mostly restricted to second-half substitutions. He ended the season with the side having scored twice in 28 appearances.
