Career

[edit]

Hereford

[edit]

Harris was born in Gloucester,[2] and started his career in the youth systems at Pegasus Juniors and Hereford.[3] Whilst with Hereford, he made 3 appearances for the first team - two of these in the Herefordshire FA Challenge Cup, with a debut against Holme Lacy[4] and his final appearance being his Southern League Division One South and West debut against Barnstaple Town[5] He also spent time on loan at Lydney Town in 2017.[6][3]

Oxford United

[edit]

He joined Oxford United on a two-year scholarship in 2017.[7] He spent time on loan at A.F.C. Totton.[8]

He signed his first professional contract with Oxford United in July 2019.[9]

On 3 January 2020, Harris joined National League South side Oxford City on a month-long loan.[10] He appeared in four league matches for Oxford City.[2]

He combined his time at Oxford United with studying at Hartpury University, and he captained the England Colleges team.[3]

Cheltenham Town

[edit]

Following a trial with the club,[3] in September 2020 Harris signed for League Two side Cheltenham Town after his contract at Oxford United expired.[11] He made his debut for Cheltenham Town on 6 October 2020 as a half-time substitute for Scott Flinders in a 2–0 EFL Trophy victory over Plymouth Argyle.[12]

He signed a new contract with Cheltenham in May 2021.[13] Ahead of the 2021–22 season he appeared in pre-season friendlies for Bishop's Cleeve and Stourbridge.[14] During the season he spent time on loan at Cinderford Town, Redditch United and Weston-super-Mare.[8] Harris returned to Weston-super-Mare on loan for the 2022–23 season.[15]

He moved on loan to Bath City in January 2023, after being recalled from his loan with Weston.[16]

In December 2023, Harris returned to Weston-super-Mare on loan until the end of the season.[17]

Ahead of the 2024–25 season, Harris was reported to have been on trial with both Swindon Town and Bristol Rovers, neither of which resulted in a move materialising.[18][19] In September 2024, he returned to Weston-super-Mare on a season-long loan deal.[20]
