He signed a three-year professional contract in June 2013.

He was named on the substitutes bench on a number of occasions throughout the 2016–17 season, but did not play for Manchester City that season.

He made his first-team debut in Norwich's first match of the season, away to Fulham.

He got his first professional football clean sheet on 16 August 2017, in a 2–0 home win over Queens Park Rangers at Carrow Road.

He would ultimately be the only player to be ever present for Norwich in the league during the season, also being ever present in the FA Cup and making three appearances in the EFL Cup.

At the end of the season, Norwich fans voted him third in the Player of the Season vote behind James Maddison and Grant Hanley.

Gunn received his first call up to the England national team in November 2017 for a friendly match against Brazil, after Jack Butland withdrew from the squad with an injury.

Gunn joined Southampton in July 2018, signing a five-year deal with the club, for a fee estimated at £13.5 million.

Gunn switched his international allegiance to Scotland in March 2023, and he was selected in their squad for UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying matches that month.

He made his debut on 25 March against Cyprus at Hampden Park, keeping a clean sheet in a 3–0 UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying victory.

His father is originally from Thurso, Caithness, in the far north of Scotland.

Gunn attended Alpington Primary School and Framingham Earl High School.

In October 2020 Gunn joined EFL Championship side Stoke City on loan for the 2020–21 season as a replacement for the departing Jack Butland.

Gunn made his debut on 27 October 2020 against Swansea City coming on as a half time substitute for the injured Adam Davies.

He kept his place for the next three matches before he suffered an ankle injury.

Josef Bursik took his place in goal until both Gunn and Davies returned to fitness in January.

Gunn made 15 appearances for Stoke until his season was ended by a foot injury in April 2021.

On 23 June 2021, Gunn made a permanent return to Norwich City, for an undisclosed fee.

Despite his father Bryan representing Scotland at international level, Angus represented England at various youth levels.
