Description:

Andreas Schjelderup began his adventure with football in his hometown club Bodø/Glimt. In 2020, despite interest from many big European clubs, he chose to move to Denmark to sign with Superligaen club Nordsjælland. He made his senior debut from the starting eleven, in a 0–2 defeat to OB on 7 February 2021. Aged 16 years and 248 days old, he became the 13th youngest player in Superligaen history. He scored his first senior goal for the club in a 3–0 win over local rivals Lyngby on 12 March. In doing so, he became the club’s record youngest goalscorer in Superligaen history, edging out teammate Tochi Chukwuani’s record set the previous season, and the fourth youngest overall in league history.
