Defender Andresson became the latest in a long string of Icelanders to represent the Royals when he debuted from the bench against Gillingham in the first round of the Carabao Cup – he came off the bench to feature in a 2-0 victory.

As well as representing the Royals’ youth team that season, he also joined Bath City on a loan stint – his set-piece ability helped contribute to an impressive five goals for the Romans, where he would also captain the National League South side.
