Niklas Andersen (born 4 August 1988 in Frankfurt am Main) is a German football defender of Norwegian descent who plays for SSVg Velbert.[1]
Career
The defender played in the youth system of Hamburger SV, Eintracht Frankfurt and Schalke 04. He moved often, due to following his father and coach, Jørn Andersen. In 2005, he gained a foothold in Rot-Weiss Essen's A youth team and was called up in the last season for the Regionalliga team. For the 2008–09 season Andersen moved to Bundesliga club Werder Bremen where he signed a contract running until 30 June 2012. Andersen made his debut for the Werder Bremen senior team on 13 May 2009. He was substituted on in the 77th minute for Frank Baumann in a 0–5 away win against Eintracht Frankfurt.[2] He was released by Werder in June 2011, and spent part of the summer with Charlton Athletic but didn't do enough to win a deal so he signed for Chemnitzer FC half a season later, spending a year with the club before leaving on a free transfer.
Personal life
He is the son of former Norwegian international footballer and Bundesliga top scorer Jørn Andersen.
