Club career
Andem was born in Douala. After starting his professional career with hometown's Union Douala (which included a loan spell at Olympic Mvolyé)[1] he moved to Brazil, where he represented Cruzeiro Esporte Clube and Esporte Clube Bahia.
In January 1998, Andem joined Portuguese Primeira Liga side Boavista FC where, during the following five seasons, he would have engage in an interesting battle for first-choice status with future Sporting CP player and Portuguese international Ricardo. However, during the Chequereds' 2001 national championship conquest – their only – he played just six matches.
After Ricardo left for the capital team, Andem was restored as starter, losing the position midway through the 2004–05 campaign to new signing Carlos. He would regain his previous status after the Angolan was sold to FC Steaua București, amassing a further 43 league appearances in two seasons.
Andem played his last season as a professional in 2007–08, with second division club C.D. Feirense, where he would play second-fiddle. He retired at the age of 40.
International career
Barred mainly by Jacques Songo'o, Andem featured irregularly for Cameroon during eight years. He was selected as backup for the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
