Harry Patrick Vaughan is an Irish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for side Hull City.
Vaughan made his first-team debut for Oldham Athletic on 23 February 2021, coming on for Marcus Barnes with 15 minutes left to play of a 1–0 defeat to Barrow at Boundary Park.[2] Head coach Harry Kewell said that "clearly he's not afraid of anything, which is good".[3] On 14 December 2022, Vaughan joined Northern Premier League side Radcliffe on a one-month youth loan.[4]
On 31 January 2023, Vaughan joined Hull City on an 18-month contract.[5] He made his debut for the Tigers in the 0–0 draw away at Blackburn Rovers on 15 April 2023.[6]
On 1 February 2024, Vaughan joined League One club Bristol Rovers on loan until the end of the season.[7] He made his debut from the bench two days later, replacing George Friend with around ten minutes remaining in a 1–0 victory over Exeter City.[8] Having failed to establish himself in the first-team, manager Matt Taylor confirmed that his absence from matchday squads were due to a lack of contribution during the opportunities he had been given, noting that the loan had been a great learning curve for the player.[9]
Although born in England, Vaughan qualifies to play for the Republic of Ireland due to Irish heritage on his Mother's side. On 4 October 2021, he was called up to the Republic of Ireland U19 squad for the first time, for their double header of friendlies against Sweden U19 in Marbella, Spain.[10] He made his underage international debut on 8 October 2021 in a 2–2 draw with Sweden.[11] Vaughan was called up to the Republic of Ireland U21s for the first time on 6 June 2023 for the team's friendly fixtures against Gabon U23, Ukraine U21 & Kuwait U22 in Austria on 13, 16 & 19 June 2023.[12] [13]
Vaughan has been described as an intelligent midfielder who is quick with the ball at his feet.[14]
