Harry Gray is one of Leeds United’s brightest academy products in recent years, following Archie Gray joining Tottenham Hotspur.
The Leeds United academy is famed for its ability to produce talent consistently, with James Milner and Kalvin Phillips among those to have progressed through and gone on to play Premier League football consistently.
That duo have also won numerous caps for England but, for now, Harry Gray will learn from Jonny Howson at Leeds. There, he will predominantly be a player utilised in the U-21 team.
Daniel Farke handed Harry Gray his debut against Bristol City last season, which the Leeds youngster described as special. Great uncle, and Elland Road icon, Eddie watched on during Harry’s Leeds debut.

Harry Gray nominated for Premier League 2 award
Gray paid tribute to Patrick Bamford recently, with Bamford confident Gray has a bright future at Leeds. The 32-year-old has already had plenty of reasons to back that up so far this term.
Gray has had a remarkable start to the 2025/26 campaign with four goals and an assist in three league games for the U-21 team already.
The U-21 side are eighth in Premier League 2. Division 1, with two wins and a defeat from three matches. He also notched an assist during a 4-1 EFL Trophy defeat to Port Vale.

However, those five goal involvements in the league are five of the seven his side have scored, they also make him the player with the most in the league, as well as the joint-top scorer.
It’s for those reasons Gray has been nominated for August’s Premier League 2 Player of the Month award.
Gray is one of eight alongside Mirsad Ali and Kevon Gray of Leicester City, Charlie Tasker and Shane Nti of Brighton & Hove Albion, Arsenal’s Charles Sagoe Jr, Chelsea’s Shumeira Mhueka, and Spurs’ Reiss-Alexander Russell-Denny.

Spurs’ latest transfer interest in Harry Gray
Max McFadden has joined Spurs from Leeds after Archie Gray’s move to north London. However, Harry Gray could join Archie at Tottenham with McFadden, following transfer links emerging last season.
Leeds will, of course, want to retain him for longer than his brother. Gray recently signed a new scholarship at Leeds this summer, but he is not yet turned 17.
Harry is currently happy at Leeds despite Spurs links but things can quickly change in football, especially given how he has started the campaign in the Premier League 2.
Harry and Archie could reunite at Tottenham, provided his development isn’t handled well at Leeds. He needs a pathway into regular first-team football.
