Harry James Souttar, born on October 22, 1998, in Aberdeen, Scotland, is a towering center-back who represents the Australian national soccer team and plays for Leicester City in the EFL Championship.

Standing at an imposing 6'6" (1.98m), Souttar is known for his aerial dominance, defensive prowess, and ability to contribute goals during set pieces.

Initially representing Scotland at youth levels, he switched allegiance to Australia in 2019, leveraging his mother's Australian heritage.

Souttar made an immediate impact for the Socceroos, scoring twice on his debut against Nepal in a World Cup qualifier. His performances at the 2022 FIFA World Cup earned him widespread acclaim, solidifying his reputation as a key player for Australia.

At the club level, Souttar began his career with Dundee United before moving to Stoke City and later Leicester City in 2023.

His journey reflects resilience and growth, overcoming injuries and excelling on both domestic and international stages. After a long layoff, Souttar is once again fit and firing. Just in time too! Should he stay this way, no doubt he will play an integral part of Tony Popovic’s backline at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
