Gyollai was born in Békéscsaba and started his youth career at hometown club Békéscsaba 1912 Előre in 2005.[3] He left the club in 2011 to join the youth academy of Nemzeti Bajnokság I club Budapest Honvéd.[4]

After various senior games as an unused substitute for Stoke, in 2016, Gyollai joined Nantwich Town on loan. He went on to make 8 league appearances for the club.[6] Impressing on his loan spell, in 2017, Gyollai re-joined The Dabbers once again on loan.[7]
