Career

Anderson started his career in the Centre of Excellence at Burnley, joining the club as a seven-year-old.[4] He progressed through the Centre of Excellence and went on to join the under-18 side, signing a two-year scholarship in the summer of 2010.[4] He was captain of the Burnley side that reached the semi-finals of the 2011–12 FA Youth Cup, however he missed the tail end of the season due to a bout of Infectious mononucleosis.[5] In May 2012, on completion of his scholarship he signed his first professional contract on a one-year deal.[6]

In August 2012, he signed for Conference Premier side Barrow on loan until January 2013, along with fellow Burnley player Joe Jackson.[7] His debut came in the same month in a 0–0 draw at home to AFC Telford United.[4] He established himself as a first team regular as the Bluebirds struggled towards the bottom end of the table. Barrow looked into extending his loan deal but Anderson returned to Burnley in January, having made twenty-one appearances for the club.[8] In January 2013 upon his return to Burnley, he made first team bench for the 2–0 away win at Millwall, remaining an unused substitute.[9] A month later he joined Conference Premier side Hyde on a one-month loan deal.[9] His debut came against Kidderminster Harriers in a 4–0 away defeat, replacing Josh Brizell as a second-half substitute.[10] His first start for the club came in the 1–0 home defeat to Mansfield Town.[10] He returned to Burnley late in February having only made four appearances, after his loan was cut short due to suffering a knee ligament injury in the 5–1 defeat to Alfreton Town.[11]

In April 2013, he signed a new one-year contract extension with Burnley despite having not recovered from his knee injury.[12] In November 2013, having recovered from injury, he signed for Conference Premier side FC Halifax Town on loan until January 2014.[13] He made his debut for the club in 4–3 home defeat to Woking.[10] It proved to be his only appearance for the club as he struggled to get into the team due to the sides good form, and returned to Burnley in January.

In July 2014, he signed another one-year extension with the club following Burnley's promotion to the Premier League.[14] In September 2014 he was sent out on loan again, joining Conference Premier side Lincoln City on a one-month loan deal.[15] He went straight into the side making his debut in a 1–0 defeat to Aldershot Town.[10] His first senior goal came in a 1–1 draw with Gateshead, scoring the opener with a header.[16] In October 2014, he returned to Burnley having made six appearances after a loan extension could not be agreed.[16] Later in the month he joined Football League Two club Carlisle United on an initial one-month loan deal.[17] He made his Carlisle United and professional debut in a 3–0 away defeat to Portsmouth in November 2014, still earning praise from boss Keith Curle despite the heavy defeat.[18] His loan was extended in December 2014 for a further month, after impressing in his first four appearances.[19] In January 2015, he returned to Burnley following the 2–1 defeat to Newport County, having made nine appearances for the Cumbrian side.[20]

In February 2016, he joined League One side Chesterfield on loan until the end of the season.[21]
