Early life
[edit]Andersen is the son of Henrik Andersen and a Belgian mother. He was born in 1985 in the Brussels suburb of Etterbeek, as Henrik Andersen at the time was playing at Anderlecht. As Henrik Andersen 1990 moved to 1. FC Köln, the family moved to Eupen, which lies near the border to Germany. After Henrik Andersen finished his career in 1998, the family remained in Eupen.
Playing career
[edit]At the end of the 2018–19 season, Andersen retired after 15 years playing in Belgium and Germany for clubs in the top two divisions of both countries.[3]
Coaching career
[edit]After a brief time in charge of Alemannia Aachen in 2021, for whom he had previously played, Andersen had two spells in temporary charge across the border at Eupen.
