Morton have confirmed the loan signing of Elyh Harrison from Manchester United. The 20-year-old goalkeeper joins until the end of the 2026/27 season, subject to registration.
What happened?
Harrison's loan move to Morton represents a third temporary spell away from United in his career. He is highly regarded at United and is seen as a fine example of a contemporary goalkeeper.
Why it matters for Morton
Morton finished 8th in the Championship last season, with 38 points from 36 games, and recent form of 0W-3D-2L, so the signing of Harrison is a boost to their squad ahead of the new campaign.
What comes next?
Harrison will be hoping to perform well at Morton and put himself in a strong position to return to United and stake a claim for a first-team spot. With the new season set to begin, Morton will be looking to improve on their recent form, which included a 1-1 draw with Airdrie United in their last match on May 1, 2026. Morton are currently 39 points behind leaders ST Johnstone, but the signing of Harrison is a positive step for the club, who have scored 36 goals and conceded 52 so far this season, resulting in a goal difference of -16. As the new season gets underway, Morton will be looking to build on their recent signings and push for a higher finish in the Championship. With Harrison on board, they will be hoping to start the season strongly and make a push for the top spots in the league.
