Peter Philip Harris (19 December 1925 – 2 January 2003) was an association football (soccer) player.

Harris is notable for his career with Portsmouth F.C.. Signed from Gosport Borough F.C., he played a crucial role in Pompey's championship-winning teams as an out and out right-winger with an instinctive goalscoring touch. The speed of a top sprinter allied to his great opportunism made him a prolific goalscorer with 193 league goals in a 14-year career at Fratton Park which made him Pompey's all-time record goalscorer. Only the competition from Stanley Matthews and Tom Finney prevented Peter earning more than two caps for the England national football team. He made England debut against Ireland in a 2–0 defeat in September 1949.
