Mikkel Andersen is a Danish goalkeeper who joined Rovers on loan from Reading on 1 September 2009, transfer deadline day. He signed for four months, until 1 January 2010, and was immediately added to the starting lineup for Rovers' next game, replacing Rhys Evans between the sticks. He went on to play in all of Rovers' 18 league games during the spell, and on 30 December 2009 it was announced that his stay was being extended by a further month. The Pirates had wanted to keep him until the end of the season, but Reading were without a manager at the time and were not willing to commit him to a long term stay until an appointment had been made.
[edit] Career
Mikkel started out with AB Copenhagen in Denmark, before moving to England in January 2007 to join Reading. He was sent out for a number of short-term loan spells during his time at the Berkshire club, to Torquay United, Rushden & Diamonds, Brentford and Brighton & Hove Albion before being loaned to Rovers in 2009.
