Andy Ryan (born 29 September 1994)[1] is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Airdrieonians.

Career

He made his club debut for Hamilton Academical on 23 July 2011, in the semi-final of the Scottish Challenge Cup,[2] before making his Scottish Football League debut one week later.[3]

Ryan was named SFL Young Player of the Month for February 2012,[4] and was given a three-year contract in March 2012.[5]

In June 2012, Ryan praised the club's youth set-up.[6] In September 2012, Ryan suffered an ankle injury.[7] At the start of the 2013–14 season, Ryan publicly stated that he was eager to prove his worth for new manager Alex Neil.[8]

On 18 October 2013, Ryan signed a one-month loan deal with Brechin City.[9] After returning to Hamilton, he admitted his chances at the club had been limited but he was still grateful to play there.[10] In April 2015 he signed a new contract with the club, until the summer of 2016.[11] On 13 August 2015, Ryan joined Arbroath on a three-month loan.[12] He left Hamilton by mutual consent in December 2015.[13]

After leaving Hamilton, Ryan played three matches as trialist for Arbroath, scoring once against Clyde.[14] He then signed for Forfar Athletic in January 2016.[15]

Ryan signed for Airdrieonians in May 2016.[16]
