Career edit

Harper impressed Inverness manager John Robertson during a friendly game with Nairn County in August 2017.[2] He made his league debut for Inverness on 13 March 2018 against Dunfermline Athletic as a late replacement for Riccardo Calder, but was himself injured in the 7th minute of play.[3]

He was one of 10 youth players to turn professional with the club in May 2018.[4]

Harper was recalled from his loan following Jamie McCart's departure to St Johnstone, which left the club with few defenders.

International career edit

On 25 May 2021, Harper received his first international call up for the Scotland U-21 squad alongside Inverness teammates Robbie Deas, Daniel MacKay and Roddy MacGregor.[5]
