Harry John Parsons (born 9 October 2002) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for National League South side Chippenham Town.

Career

In 2011, Parsons joined Swindon Town's academy after trialling with Reading and Swindon, signing a scholarship with the club in 2019. On 13 November 2019, Parsons made his debut for the club in a 1–0 EFL Trophy loss against Bristol Rovers. On 14 May 2021 it was announced that he had been offered a new contract and it was confirmed as signed the following month.

On 12 November 2021, Parsons joined National League South side Chippenham Town on a one-month loan deal. Against the Dorking Wanderers he scored three goals within 7 minutes. On 10 December 2021, the loan was extended for a further month.

On 26 August 2022, Parsons joined National League North club Banbury United on loan until January 2023. Parsons was recalled on 13 October. On 29 October, Parsons returned for a second loan spell with Chippenham Town. In February 2023, he joined Farnborough on loan until the end of the season. Swindon released Parsons at the end of the 2022-23 season.

Parsons joined Maidenhead United for the 2023-24 season. On 14 November 2023 he joined Banbury United on a one-month loan. When this loan expired, he then joined Weymouth on another 28-day loan. He left Maidenhead at the end of the season after one goal in fifteen appearances.

On 8 June 2024, Parsons re-joined Chippenham Town for the 2024/25 season on a permanent basis.

Style of play

Swindon under-18's manager David Farrell has labelled Parsons as "raw" and "a pest" up front.
