Career[]
Before Fulham[]
Chris was born in Glasgow before his family moved to Australia when he was at a young age. He played for Rockingham City as a child before signing for Perth Glory's academy. He spent a number of years working his way through the age groups before he made his first team debut in 2021. He managed a total of four league appearances and two cup appearances with the first team before his move to England.
Fulham (2023-present)[]
Fulham announced Chris' signing on 6 July 2023 for an undisclosed fee, and he joined up with the U21 squad.
After an impressive start to his Fulham career, he scored a nine-minute hat-trick during a 8-0 thrashing over Burnley U21 in the Premier League Cup on 10 November 2023, after being introduced as a second half substitute.
On 1 February 2024, Chris was sent out on loan for the remainder of 2023-24 to Scottish Championship side Airdrieonians.
