Harry McKirdy (born 29 March 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for EFL League Two side Swindon Town.
McKirdy is a product of the Aston Villa and Stoke City academies. While in Aston Villa's academy he played on loan at English Football League sides Stevenage, Crewe Alexandra and Newport County. He played for Carlisle United on a permanent basis during the 2019–20 season and then signed with Port Vale in September 2020, though he would only stay there for one season. He joined Swindon Town in August 2021 on a one year contract.
Style Of Play
McKirdy is a versatile attacker, able to play in any forward position, either centrally or out wide. Crewe boss David Artell called McKirdy "a natural goalscorer" and "one of those nuisance forwards, who gets under the feet of centre-halves". He has been criticized for his temperament, particularly in regards to his reactions to jeering by fans both on the pitch and on social media.
