Nikita Andreev

Early career

Andreev began playing football for his hometown PSK (Sports School Paemurru) in 1995 and FC Narva in 2002 -2005, before leaving for Ajax Lasnamäe in early 2005. He scored 29 goals in 32 league appearances in his debut Esiliiga season, becoming the league's top-scorer by an incredible 10 goal margin. After a positive end to the season in which Ajax Lasnamäe finished third, they won the play-off against Kuressaare over two legs, and were promoted to the Meistriliiga. However, promotion was not enough for Andreev, and a transfer to local rivals Levadia Tallinn soon followed in the 2005 close season.

After his transfer from Ajax Lasnamäe, Andreev played 5 games during Levadia's UEFA Cup run, knocking out Finnish side Haka and Dutch club FC Twente, before falling to Newcastle United in the first round. Andreev's only goal during the run was the opening goal in the first leg of Levadia's second qualifying round tie against FC Twente on 10 August 2006. He finished his debut season for Levadia with 17 goals in 27 league games.

2007 season

He played two games for CSKA Moscow at the 2007 CIS Cup while on trial at the club, however he failed to convince head coach Valery Gazzaev to offer him a permanent contract, and he returned to Levadia. Andreev finished the 2007 season with 13 goals in 19 league appearances.

2008 season

He played both games of the 2008–09 UEFA Champions League first…

After persistently turning down offers to play for the Estonian football team, Andreev represented the Russian under-19 team at the 2007 UEFA Under-19 Championship in Austria, though they failed to win a match, and crashed out of the tournament in the group stages.

Andreev stated in an interview with UEFA.com in July 2009 that he is a patriotic Russian, that he dreams of playing in the Russian league and is a Zenit fan. He also spoke of his commitment to football, stating "I love playing football, no matter where; in the yard, on the beach. I have not lost my desire – it has become even stronger."
