Christopher Daniel Harold (born 14 July 1992) is an Australian professional football (soccer) player who plays as a forward for National Premier Leagues club ECU Joondalup.

Born in Perth, Western Australia, Harold started his professional career with Gold Coast United in 2010 after coming through the club's youth team. He returned to Perth to play for Perth Glory in 2012 following the dissolution of Gold Coast United. In January 2020, he joined Central Coast Mariners.

Harold featured twice for Australian youth national sides.

Club career

Originally from Perth, Harold spent most of his childhood in Singapore and Malaysia. In 2009, Harold trained for two weeks at the Manchester United Academy.[1]

In 2012 Harold returned to Perth to sign with Perth Glory.[3]

After 8 years with Perth Glory, Harold departed in January 2020 to join Central Coast Mariners on a short-term contract.[4][5] In July 2020, following the suspension of the 2019–20 A-League due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Mariners announced that Harold would not be rejoining the squad for the final four games of the season for personal reasons.[6] In October 2020, Harold retired from professional football aged 28, citing frustration and feeling disenfranchised with the A-League and the sport in Australia.[7]

Harold joined former Glory coach Kenny Lowe at ECU Joondalup in the National Premier Leagues.[8]

International career

Harold was selected to tour to South America with the Australian Young Socceroos in March 2010.[9]

On 7 March 2011 he was selected to represent the Australia Olympic football team in an Asian Olympic Qualifier match against Iraq.[10]
