Harry Andrew Gray (born 8 October 2008) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for League One side Rotherham United, on loan from Premier League club Leeds United.
A product of Leeds United's youth academy, Gray started playing with Leeds Under-18s as a 14-year old in 2023.[2] He debuted with Leeds in a non-competitive friendly against Harrogate Town in July 2024, and was part of the club's pre-season squad in the summer of 2024.[3] In March 2025, Gray started training with Leeds' senior team.[4] At the age of 16 he made his Leeds first-team debut at Elland Road as an 86th-minute substitute for Brenden Aaronson in a 6–0 Championship league win over Stoke City on 21 April 2025.[5] On 30 April 2025, he helped the Leeds U21s win the 2024–25 National League Cup, and scored his side's second goal in a 2–1 win over the Sutton United U21s to clinch the trophy.[6] He was on the bench when Leeds won the 2024–25 EFL Championship in a 2–1 win over Plymouth Argyle on 3 May 2025.[7] Gray would go on to feature in several pre season games in the following season, showing promise earning an assist against 3. Liga side SC Verl and hitting the crossbar against La Liga side Villareal CF. Despite this, Gray did not earn any minutes in Leeds’ Premier League campaign whilst he was present at the club, only featuring occasionally as an unused substitute.
On 14 January 2026, Gray joined EFL League One side Rotherham United on loan for the remainder of the 2025–26 season.[8] There, he would score his first goal at senior level in a 2–1 win against Northampton Town. Gray started in a 3-0 defeat to Wigan Athletic F.C. on the 14th of April 2026 which would see his side relegated to EFL League Two despite having 4 games left to play.
International career
Born in England, Gray is of Scottish descent and can play for either national team.[9] He made five appearances for the England U16s from 2023 to 2024.[10] He was called up to the England U17s for a set of friendlies in March 2025.[11] Gray was included in the squad for the 2025 UEFA European Under-17 Championship and scored a goal in their last group game against Czech Republic.[12][13]
