Biography

A product of the youth system at Sunderland, Andrew made two appearances for Sunderland U23s in the EFL Trophy, before making his league debut during a loan spell to Hartlepool United in February 2017.

The striker took in further loan spells at Harrogate Town, Falkirk, and Darlington, scoring six goals in five appearances for the latter.

In January 2019, Andrew signed for Dundee from Sunderland for an undisclosed fee, scoring on his debut for the club against Hearts in a 2-1 victory for the Dees. The Englishman scored a further three league goals, however it was not enough to save Dundee from relegation to the Championship.

The following season, Andrew scored a double in a 3-0 victory over Raith Rovers in the League Cup group stage, and followed this up with strikes against Ayr and Dundee United in the early weeks of the season.

After the season was ended early due to COVID, Andrew left the club in July 2020 and signed for Torquay United.
