Club career

While at Real Madrid Juvenil B he was considered one of the most promising players, having gained good reviews by both Real Madrid's Youth Staff and Denmark's Youth coaching staff. In Real Madrid Juvenil B he chose to be called simply by Andreas without his last name.

When his father left Getafe CF and Madrid to become head coach at Spartak Moscow, it was decided that Andreas should return to Denmark to join Lyngby BK. He then later joined Danish Superliga side FC Nordsjælland.

On 10 April 2011 he scored both goals when FC Nordsjælland beat SønderjyskE 2-0.
