Harris is from North Hykeham in Lincoln, England. She began playing for Lincoln City's centre of excellence. In 2010 she was called into England women's national under-17 football team and moved to London to join Arsenal's academy.[1]
Harris progressed into Arsenal's first team squad, but her development was temporarily derailed by a shoulder injury and the untimely death of her mother. She moved to Nottingham Forest on loan and then signed for London Bees ahead of the 2014 FA WSL season.[2] In July 2018, Harris transferred to top tier Brighton & Hove Albion, whose coach Hope Powell said: "She already has some good experience at a relatively young age, and I am very much looking forward to working with her this season."[3]
When Marie Hourihan was injured in a defeat by Manchester City in February 2019, Harris came on as a substitute to make her league debut.[4] Harris was subsequently named the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Fans' Player of the Month for February 2019.[5] In 2019–20 Harris made six appearances for Brighton, including a "clean sheet" in a Continental Cup win over Arsenal. The signing of Cecilie Fiskerstrand in January reduced Harris's first team opportunities.[6]
In January 2020 Harris joined Brighton's neighbours Lewes on loan until the end of the 2019–20 FA Women's Championship season.[7] The season was truncated by the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom, and Harris joined FA Women's National League South club Watford in July 2020.[8] After seven appearances for Watford Harris transferred to FA Women's Championship leaders Leicester City in January 2021.[9] In July 2022 Sophie joined newly promoted Southampton FC.
