Swindon Town are weighing up a potential move for the stopper this summer. They are preparing for another year in League Two and have turned to former Lincoln City boss Mark Kennedy as their new boss.
Harris, 24, still has a year left on his contract at Cheltenham Town but has been transfer-listed and given the green light to leave the Gloucestershire club in this window. They were relegated from League One last season along with Port Vale, Carlisle United and Fleetwood Town.
In this latest update regarding the player’s situation by GloucestershireLive, the Robins have brought him in on trial as they consider a potential swoop for his services. They finished 19th in the table in the last campaign and were 12 points above the drop zone in the end.
Swindon Town eye goalkeeper
Swindon Town could see Harris as someone to bolster their goalkeeping department.
They underperformed last term and will be aiming to compete higher up the table next time around.
Harris has been on the books at Cheltenham Town since 2020 but is poised to leave in the near future.
He has made four appearances for the Robins thus far, mostly as a backup. He has also been loaned out to gain experience to Cinderford Town, Redditch United, Weston-super-Mare, and Bath City.
The goalie began his career at Hereford before spending three years (2017–2020) at Oxford United.
What next for Cheltenham Town man?
He will be hoping to impress Swindon Town during his training spell with a view to earning a potential transfer.
Kennedy will be looking to put his own stamp on his newly inherited squad over the coming weeks.
The Wiltshire outfit have delved into the market so far to bring in Will Wright, Ryan Delaney, Rosaire Longelo, Ollie Clarke, Harry Smith and Tunmise Sobowale to strengthen their ranks.
First up for the Robins is an away trip to National League champions Chesterfield on 9th August.
