Career
Youth
Armour played for Capital Area Soccer League at the U-9 and U-13 levels. That club became North Carolina FC Youth, where he played at the U-14 level.[2] He signed an academy contract with North Carolina FC of the USL Championship on April 4, 2019.[3] He made his debut for North Carolina FC in a friendly against Club Necaxa on March 23, 2019.[4] He signed a second academy contract with North Carolina FC on January 17, 2020.[5]
Professional
On July 2, 2020, Armour signed with 1. FC Nürnberg in the German 2. Bundesliga.[6] The following summer, on June 29, 2021, Armour signed with Charlotte FC of MLS.[7]
On July 17, 2021, Armour moved on loan to USL Championship side Charlotte Independence for the remainder of their 2021 season.[8]
On March 13, 2022, Armour scored the first goal in Charlotte FC's history in the 66th minute against Atlanta United.[9]
On April 20, 2022, Armour tore the lateral and medial meniscus in his left knee.[10] This was after discovering weeks earlier that he had no functioning ACL in his left knee. His knee was surgically repaired, after which Armor went into a year-long rehab.
Armour was waived by Charlotte on April 27, 2023.[11] He subsequently joined USL Championship side FC Tulsa for the remainder of the 2023 season.[12] On July 31, 2023 Armour suffered a season ending injury to his knee.[13]
