Career

[edit]

Andersen demonstrated consistent scoring ability throughout his career. At Helsingør IF, he scored 21 goals during the 2003–04 season and was named Player of the Year. He then joined HIK (HIK), where he played for three seasons. During his time at the club, he trialled with Belgian Pro League club Gent, appearancing in a friendly against Maccabi Haifa.[2][3] Despite HIK's struggles in the Danish 1st Division, Andersen maintained his form, scoring 15 goals in his final season and ranking high on the league's top scorer list.[4] As a result, he moved to Danish Superliga club Lyngby, coached by Kasper Hjulmand.[5]

In 2008, Andersen joined BK Frem, where he played until 2010, where he moved to hometown club Elite 3000 in the Danish 2nd Division.[6] After two years, he signed with BSV,[7] before moving on to Fremad Amager halfway through the season, in January 2013.[8][9] He rejoined Frem in 2015 but was sidelined by injuries for much of 2016, limiting him to a few appearances for the reserve team. Andersen left Frem in 2017 and joined FA 2000 in the Denmark Series, coached by his former Fremad Amager manager, Tim Ilsø.[10]

Coaching career

In August 2017, Andersen was appointed assistant coach to new head coach Jesper Pedersen at his former club FA 2000.[10]
