Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Armour started his career with Queen's Park[1]

He then joined Morton's youth academy, before making his debut in April 2017 as a late substitute against Dunfermline Athletic.[2]

Armour and goalkeeper Jamie McGowan signed contract extension on 11 May 2017, for six months and one year respectively.[3]

The young striker scored his first goal for the club coming on as a substitute on 1 July 2017; tapping in a rebound from close range in a pre-season friendly with Stenhousemuir.[4]

Armour signed a one-year contract in June 2018.[5] A month later, Armour scored his first goal for the club in a 5-0 home win against Albion Rovers in the Scottish League Cup group stage.[6] He joined Scottish League One side Dumbarton on loan in January 2019, linking up with former manager Jim Duffy.[7]

Armour left Morton in June 2019 and then signed a one-year contract with Peterhead.[8]
