#Andreas #leaves #United #permanent #transfer
Andreas made his senior United debut against MK Dons in August 2014 and went on to clock up 75 first-team appearances.
He scored four goals for the Reds, and was a big part of the squad during the 2018/19 and 2019/20 seasons, in which he played a total of 62 games.
In 2018/19, Andreas claimed the club’s Goal of the Season, as reward for a stunning effort against Southampton – his first-ever strike in the Premier League.

Brisbane veteran Dayne Zorko has copped a one-match ban after appearing to make contact with a players’ eye in the aftermath of a dangerous tackle.
The incident occurred in the first quarter of the Lions’ loss to Adelaide on Sunday, when Zorko wrapped up Crows youngster Luke Pedlar in the Crows’ forward line.
After catching Pedlar high, Zorko appeared to rub his right hand in the region of Pedlar’s eye, with the incident catching the attention of the match review officer.

The MRO assessed the incident as intentional conduct with low impact and high contact, giving Zorko a one-match suspension as a result.
Zorko was not the only star to be given a ban in the wake of Sunday’s thriller, with Crows midfielder Rory Laird handed a one match-ban for a tackle on Lachie Neale.
Laird’s tackle was assessed as careless conduct with medium impact and high contact after he appeared to sling Neale’s head into the turf.
If the two players choose not to contest the bans at the tribunal on Tuesday, Zorko will miss Brisbane’s clash against Hawthorn in round 13, with the Lions having a bye in round 12, while Laird will miss the round 12 clash against the Suns.
Richmond star Dustin Martin was the other player to be charged by the MRO, with the Tigers star copping a $3000 fine for striking Port Adelaide’s Dan Houston.

Latrell Mitchell is out of the State of Origin series opener at the Adelaide Oval on Wednesday night with a calf strain.
And it may yet get worse for the Blues, with star half Nathan Cleary also in doubt with a wisdom tooth issue.
Nine’s Danny Weidler reports Nicho Hynes has been told to prepare to play at No.7, and Matt Burton — already on his way to Adelaide as 18th man — would move onto the bench should Cleary be ruled out.

But Weidler said NSW is currently still expecting Cleary to play.
Mitchell was picked to play in the centres, but has been ruled out after scans revealed the extent of the strain.
He will not travel to Adelaide with the rest of the Blues squad on Monday morning, and has been replaced in the side by Stephen Crichton.
“This is huge … he had build that combination on the left side wth Hudson Young, they had worked out how they were going to play so now Stephen Crichton goes there [and] they’ve got to tweak things,” Andrew Johns said on Wide World of Sports’ Immortal Behaviour.

“Stephen Crichton is a world-class player, but [Mitchell] is a big loss this close to the game.
“I think it’s only a small strain, but you just cannot risk an outside back.”
The new combination will have just the captains run on Tuesday to gel, before the match on Wednesday night.
Mitchell didn’t finish training on Sunday night, and joked with the Sydney Morning Herald he was “a bit cold”.

“I thought I’d give Nicho [Hynes] and Critta [Stephen Crichton] a run out there,” he said.
It wasn’t until later in the evening the extent of the injury became apparent.
The injury is believed to be only minor, and his fitness for game two on June 21 is not in doubt.
For Crichton, it’s the second Origin promotion in the space of a week. Having originally been left out of the squad, the Panthers centre was made 18th man after Campbell Graham was withdrawn with a sternum injury.
In a statement the Blues confirmed Bulldogs half Matt Burton would travel to Adelaide on Monday afternoon as the new 18th man.
It’s the second injury scare to rip through Brad Fittler’s camp after Payne Haas spent much of Friday’s training session in the grandstand at Coogee Oval with an ankle injury.
He completed Sunday’s training session, and is not believed to be in doubt for the series-opener.
