Ryan Bernard Harley (born 22 January 1985) is an English former professional footballer who is currently assistant head coach of Swansea City.

He made his debut for the Grecians on 4 March 2008, coming on as a substitute for Andrew Taylor in a 2–2 draw against Crawley Town.

On 22 August 2011, Harley joined Championship side Brighton & Hove Albion on a 3-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

Harley completed a free transfer to League One side Swindon Town on 26 July 2013 after his contract at Brighton was terminated.

Following the departure of manager Paul Tisdale early in the 2019–20, Harley took up more of a coaching role with the club and his appearances for the first team were limited.
