Career

Aberdeen

Anderson began his footballing career with Dyce Boys Club when he was five,[3] before signing with Aberdeen youth teams when he was 13.[3] His first experience of senior football came when he moved out on loan to Scottish League Two side Elgin City at the beginning of the 2017–18 season.[4] In five months with the club, Anderson scored six times in fourteen appearances, before returning to his parent club in January 2018.

He made his Aberdeen debut as a substitute against Rangers on 5 August 2018, scoring an equalising goal in stoppage time to secure a 1–1 draw.[5] On 4 September 2018, Anderson signed a new deal until summer 2021.[3] He joined Scottish Championship side Dunfermline Athletic on loan in January 2019.[6]

Anderson was one of eight Aberdeen players who received a suspended three-match ban from the Scottish FA after they breached coronavirus-related restrictions due to visiting a bar in August 2020.[7] On 5 October 2020, Anderson signed for Ayr United, on a season-long loan.[8] However he was recalled by Aberdeen in January. He made 12 appearances scoring two goals against Albion Rovers in the League Cup.[9] On 1 February 2021, Anderson joined fellow Premiership side Hamilton Academical on loan until the end of the season.[10] He scored his first goal for Hamilton in a 4–1 win against Motherwell on 13 February 2021.[11]
