Early and personal life

His parents are Ghanaian, but he was born in Amsterdam and moved to England at the age of 6. [3]

Career

Andoh joined Aston Villa's academy at the age of 6, before being released at the age of 14. [3] He subsequently had trial spells at Port Vale, Walsall and Wolverhampton Wanderers, but was rejected by all three. [3]

During the 2017–18 season, he played for Cradley Town, before playing for Thompson Rivers University between September 2018 and December 2018. [4] He joined Worcester City in February 2019, [5] [6] before joining Solihull United later that year. [7] [8]

Following a trial spell at the club, in December 2019, he agreed to join EFL League One club Ipswich Town on a two-year contract from January 2020. [9]

On 9 October 2020, he joined Lowestoft Town on loan for a month. [10] He made 3 league appearances in the Southern League Premier Division Central and one appearance in the FA Trophy. [11]

He made his debut for Ipswich on 10 November 2020, starting in a 2–0 EFL Trophy defeat away to Crawley Town. [12] In August 2021, he went on trial with Dartford. [13]

On 17 September 2021, it was announced that Andoh had joined Hereford, initially on a one-month loan. [14] His loan was later extended, and he made 11 league appearances before returning to Ipswich in January 2022. [15] [16] Andoh was released at the end of the 2021–22 season. [17]

In July 2022, Andoh had unsuccessful trials with both Portsmouth and Harrogate Town. [18] [19]

After short spells with both Buxton [20] and Hednesford Town, [21] Andoh re-joined Hereford on a permanent basis on 1 January 2023. [22] That same day, he scored on his second Hereford debut, the equaliser in a 1–1 draw against Kidderminster Harriers. On 24 March 2023, it was announced that Andoh had left Hereford. [23]

On 2 July 2023, Andoh signed for National League club York City, making his debut in the opening league fixture of the season. [24] [25] After just four games for the Minstermen, he suffered a spinal fracture which was to rule him out for the rest of the season. [26]

In a bid to regain match fitness, in August 2024, Andoh joined National League North club Darlington on loan for a month, during which time he made six appearances. [27] [28] Andoh then began a period on loan to Truro City in the National League South in November 2024. [29]
