Club career
Early career
Born in Syracuse, New York to an African-American father and a Croatian mother, Morris moved to Zagreb, Croatia at less than one year old.[2] Initially a right-winger, he subsequently moved to right back and then centre-back in the NK Zagreb academy, where he spent nearly all his youth career.
Dinamo Zagreb
In 2013, however, he moved, as a former Croatia U17 international to the GNK Dinamo Zagreb Academy.[3] In 2014, he became a regular in Dinamo's reserve team, a position he would hold for four subsequent seasons, mainly in the Druga HNL. Morris made his first-team debut in 2015, in the 1–7 cup win against Oštrc Zlatar, scoring in the process.[4]
The same year, on September 25, he made his Prva HNL debut as well, coming in for Josip Pivarić for the second half of a 4–1 home win against NK Osijek.[5] He would go on to make just one further top-tier appearance for the club, in a 1-0 win against Lokomotiva Zagreb in September 2016.[6]
Domžale
In June 2018, Morris signed a 3-year contract with NK Domžale in Slovenia.[7]
He made his debut for Domžale on 5 August 2018, in a 5–1 away loss against NK Mura.[8] Morris left the club in June 2019.
Tuzla City
On 14 June 2019, Moriss signed a two-year contract with Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina club FK Tuzla City.[9] He made his debut for Tuzla City on 20 July 2019, in a 1–5 away league win against FK Zvijezda 09.[10]
