Career

Born in Aalborg, Andreasen started his career as a youth player with AaB but soon moved on to Randers FC where he would have a better chance of making the 1st team. He signed his first professional contract with Randers in summer 2007.^[1] Andreasen made his debut for the Randers FC senior squad on March 30, 2008 in a game against AC Horsens. His first goal for the club was a game winner against FC Nordsjælland on May 12, 2008. After the game Randers manager Colin Todd stated that Andreasen had a bright future in front of him, due to his goal scoring ability.^[2] On April 29, 2009 Randers announced that they had decided to loan out Andreasen to TPS Turku in the finish Veikkausliiga until the end of the 2008-09 season.^[3] Andreasen enjoyed a successful loan spell at TPS, scoring 5 goals in 8 games for the club, as TPS finished 3rd in the 2009 Veikkausliiga.

On July 16, 2009 Andreasen signed a two-year contract with Danish 1st Division side Thisted FC.^[4] Andreasen immediately became a regular starter for Thisted. He scored his first hat-trick in a professional game in a 4-4 draw against Kolding FC. He scored 7 goals in 15 games in the fall of 2009 but was then unfortunate to suffer an injury to his tendon.
