Club career[edit]

Chelsea[edit]

Peart-Harris began his youth career with Bedfont Green,[3][4] before moving into the Chelsea Academy at the age of eight.[5] He began his career as a winger, before moving to centre back at U12 level and then being developed into an attacking midfielder.[3] Peart-Harris progressed to sign a scholarship deal at the end of the 2018–19 season and signed a professional contract in September 2019.[6][7] He progressed to the Development Squad and finished the 2020–21 season as the team's joint-top scorer.[5] Peart-Harris departed Cobham in July 2021.[5]

Brentford[edit]

2021–22[edit]

On 23 July 2021, Peart-Harris transferred to Premier League club Brentford and signed a four-year contract, with the option of a further year, for an undisclosed fee,[8] reported to be £1.4 million.[9] Named as a substitute in 8 matchday squads during the 2021–22 season, Peart-Harris made two appearances in cup matches.[10] He was a part of the B team's 2021–22 London Senior Cup-winning squad.[11]

2022–23 and loan to Forest Green Rovers[edit]

Well down the midfield pecking order following the 2022–23 pre-season, Peart-Harris joined League One club Forest Green Rovers on loan until January 2023.[12] Following 25 appearances and four goals during the first half of the 2022–23 season, Peart-Harris' loan was extended until the end of the campaign.[13] In the absence of captain Baily Cargill,[14] Peart-Harris took the armband for a league match versus Ipswich Town on 18 February 2023, which was lost 4–0.[15] Peart-Harris finished the 2022–23 season (which culminated in relegation to League Two) with 47 appearances and six goals.[16][17]

2023–24 and loan to Portsmouth[edit]

During the 2023–24 pre-season, Peart-Harris was named in Brentford's 2023 Premier League Summer Series squad and made two appearances at the tournament.[18][19][20] Following an injury,[21] he returned to match play with the B team on 31 October 2023.[22][23] During a period in which the club was suffering an injury crisis,[24][25] Peart-Harris was called into 11 matchday squads between November 2023 and January 2024.[10] He made five substitute appearances prior to his departure on loan to League One club Portsmouth for the remainder of the 2023–24 season on 22 January 2024.[26][27] He was deployed in a variety of roles, including left midfield, defensive midfield and number 10.[28]

International career[edit]

Peart-Harris won five caps for England at U16 level during the 2017–18 season.[8] He was an unused substitute during England's three 2019 European U17 Championship elite round qualifying matches in March 2019,[10] but was not named in the squad for the tournament finals.[29] Peart-Harris was called into an U19 training camp in November 2020.[8]

Style of play[edit]

Peart-Harris has been described as "a dynamic midfield player and he drives forward with the ball. He has great quality on the ball. He can score goals and deliver assists. He is great at arriving in the penalty area at the right time".[8]
