Morris started his career at Chelsea and went on to make more than 100 appearances for the club before going on to play for Leeds, Rotherham, Millwall, St Johnstone and Bristol City. He also appeared for England at several youth levels but never made a senior appearance.

He retired in 2013 before stepping into coaching, assisting with Chelsea's U21 teams for two years before becoming assistant to their U18 side. 

Morris is now the manager of the youth side, and was on the touchline as they drew 1-1 with Aston Villa in the U18 Premier League on Saturday.
