Anthony Andreu (born 22 May 1988) is a French professional footballer who plays for English club Norwich City, as a midfielder. He began his career as a youth player at Monaco, before playing in Switzerland with CS Chênois and Stade Nyonnais. He moved to Scotland in 2012, initially with Livingston, before joining Hamilton Academical. He signed for Norwich in 2015 and was also loaned to Rotherham United before joining Dundee United for the 2016–17 season.

Andreu spent his early career in France and Switzerland with Monaco, Chênois and Stade Nyonnais.

While playing in Switzerland, Andreu started writing poetry; Andreu is also a fan of books, stating that, "I have a lot of free time. I love to read – whether it is thrillers, crime stories or more philosophical themes – and I recently bought a book about French history. I sometimes write poems and I note down details about the books I've read."

He signed for Scottish club Livingston in June 2012, alongside David Luongo. It was revealed by John Hughes that the director of football John Collins signed the duo, with the help from Collins' French connections by inviting them on trial, which impressed Hughes' management.

He made his debut for Livingston, in the first round of the Scottish Challenge Cup, in a 1–0 loss against Annan Athletic. Andreu scored his first goal in the last minutes, as they beat Falkirk on 2 September 2013. On 2 March 2013, Andreu scored twice, in a 4–1 win over Airdrieonians. In the BBC Scotland interview, Andreu name was mentioned by the Uefa general secretary, David Taylor.
