Career

[edit]

Erik Andersson made his debut for Landskrona BoIS as a 15-year-old, on 29 October 2012. He scored his first goal in the same match, a 3–2 victory over Jönköpings Södra IF. The goal made Andersson the youngest ever goalscorer in Superettan.[1]

On 1 January 2015 Andersson signed a four-year-contract with Malmö FF.[2] During his time in Malmö, Andersson struggled with injuries and left the club with only one cup appearance. Andersson was loaned to Trelleborgs FF during the 2016 and 2017 season. After helping TFF to promotion, he signed permanently for the Allsvenskan newcomer on 10 January 2018.[3] He made his Allsvenskan debut on 1 April 2018 against IFK Göteborg and scored his first Allsvenskan goal on 8 April 2018 against Djurgården.

On 5 January 2024, Andersson signed a contract with Helsingør in Denmark until 30 June 2026.[4] In July 2024, he moved to Örebro SK.[5]
