The winger then played for two years for Linköpings HC from the Elitserien and three years for their league rivals Timrå IK . For the 2009/10 season he received a contract with the reigning Swedish champions Färjestad BK . There he was able to earn a regular place, but not build on the point yield of the two previous years, which is why his contract was not extended.
The former national player spent the 2010/11 season at his ex-club Linköpings HC before joining another ex-club with Timrå IK for the following season .
As of 2013 Andersson was back under contract with his hometown club IF Troja-Ljungby , where he officially ended his career at the end of 2014 after numerous injuries over the years, to work as a police officer in Stockholm from 2015, where he was accepted at the Police Academy .
