Andrew Harry Teague (born 5 February 1986) is an English professional footballer who plays for Nelson as a central defender.

Career

Born in Preston, Teague began his career with Macclesfield Town. He suffered a broken leg on 25 November 2006, after colliding with teammate Jonny Brain (who also broke his leg) in a game against Stockport County and was ruled out for the rest of the season.

He spent loan spells with Tamworth and Hyde United, before he was released by Macclefield in the summer of 2008.

He spent some time with Leigh Genesis, before moving to Lancaster City in January 2009, where he became club captain. He moved to Chorley in January 2011, making 390 appearances for the club, also becoming club captain. He won the Lancashire FA Challenge Trophy in 2015.

He returned to Lancaster City in June 2020. After serving as captain and caretaker manager at Lancaster, Teague moved to Clitheroe in January 2024.

In June 2024, Teague dropped down a level to join North West Counties Football League Premier Division side Ramsbottom United as a player and assistant manager to Steve Wilkes. He stated that it "was a decision that took a lot of thought as there were offers in from higher up the pyramid". He was a regular in his first season at the club making 34 starts as Ramsbottom finished in 3rd, losing out in the play-offs semi-final to Padiham. In June 2025, he announced that he would be staying for a further year at Ramsbottom. He moved to Nelson, making his debut in April 2026.
