Kitchee

Born in Hong Kong to a Japanese father and Hong Kong mother, Harima spent time with Eastern and Rangers before joining Kitchee in 2013.[2] He signed his first professional contract in July 2015, and was named among the substitutes the next month in a 2015 AFC Cup game against Kuwait SC, but did not appear in his side's 6-0 defeat.[3][4]

He would have to wait until March 2016 to make his senior debut, which came in a group stage 2016 AFC Cup game against Balestier Khalsa. He came on as a 64th minute substitute for Sham Kwok Keung in the 0–1 defeat.[5]

Harima scored his first professional goal in April 2016, the only goal in a 1–0 win over Filipino side Kaya, having replaced Lo Kwan Yee only 3 minutes earlier.[6][7]

He made his league debut for Kitchee in a 2–0 win over Eastern, again replacing Sham Kwok Keung, in the 62nd minute.[8]
