Andreas Tegström (born 18 January 1979) is a Swedish footballer most noted for his time in Norwegian Tippeligaen clubs Sandefjord and Fredrikstad where he played as a striker. Tegström wanted to become a professional ice hockey player while growing up, but he quit playing ice hockey and pursued football at the amateur level for Tenhults IF and Husqvarna FF. He was brought to Sandefjord in 2005 and scored 14 goals in his first season; the club won promotion to Tippeligaen. In Sandefjord's first season at the top-flight, Tegström scored ten goals in the league and played in the 2006 Norwegian Football Cup Final. The next season he moved to Fredrikstad, where he was not a regular on the first team. He spent time on loan with Hønefoss in 2009, and he returned to Sweden after the 2010 season when his contract with Fredrikstad expired. After two seasons with the Superettan side Jönköpings Södra, he rejoined Husqvarna FF ahead of the 2013 season.
