Callum Kyle Harriott (born 4 March 1994) is an English professional footballer who currently plays for Reading as a winger. He is a product of the Charlton Athletic academy.
Born in Norbury, Harriott attended St. Andrew's Church of England High School in Croydon. He made his debut for the Addicks on 25 April 2011 in a League One game against Rochdale at The Valley, which ended in a 3–1 win for Charlton. He came on as a late substitute for loanee Dean Parrett. He then started his first game for the club two days later on the last game of the 2010–11 season against Hartlepool.
Although he did not feature for the Charlton first-team in their 2011–12 promotion season, he made his Championship debut after coming off the bench as a 74th-minute substitute for fellow academy graduate Scott Wagstaff in a 2–1 win against Blackpool. He then scored his first senior goal on 9 March 2013, in a 1–0 win away to Huddersfield Town. He scored his second goal for Charlton in a record-breaking 6–0 away win for the Addicks against nine-man Barnsley on 13 April 2013. Harriott was one of the six different scorers for Charlton that match. On 17 May 2013, Harriott signed a new three-year contract with the club. On 3 May 2014, Harriott scored his first senior hat-trick against Blackpool in a 3-0 win at Bloomfield Road.
On 28 August 2015, Harriott was loaned to Colchester United where he was very well received by fans, before returning to Charlton on 2 January 2016.
