Harry Lewis signs first professional contract

Scunthorpe United is delighted to announce Harry Lewis has signed his first professional contract with the club.

Coming into effect from July 2022, he signs a two-year deal with a one-year option in the club’s favour.

The left-sided midfielder, who has also been utilised in a left-back and left wing-back role for the Under-18s team, played for Appleby-Frodingham before signing for the Iron at the Under-13 age group.

The former St Bede’s Catholic School pupil, who turned 18 last Sunday, has made 14 appearances for the Under-18s side so far this season and has scored on two occasions, including his goal against Manchester United Under-18s at Old Trafford in the FA Youth Cup third round. This adds to his seven strikes from the 2020-21 campaign.

Lewis has trained regularly with the first team during the last couple of months, seeing himself named on the substitutes’ bench on a number of occasions, and he came on to make his senior debut in the home game against Carlisle United on New Year’s Day.
