Playing career
Andersen began his youth career with Rade before signing with Kongsvinger in 1992. In 1993, he moved to Moss FK and in January 1996 signed for English club Crystal Palace, at that time playing in the Football League Championship. He went on to make 16 appearances in the second half of the season without scoring[2] and a further 14 appearances (one goal) in the 1996–97 season, at the end of which Palace were promoted to the Premier League via the play-offs.[3]
However, in May 1997, Andersen returned to Moss FK, where he made 38 appearances over the next two years, scoring twice. He then moved to Sarpsborg FK in 1999, before joining Rygge IL in 2001 and Østsiden IL in 2003 where he finished his senior career.
