Career

Colchester United

edit

Sanderson is a product of the Colchester United Academy. He made 10 loan appearances for Chelmsford City in early 2011 before signing his first professional deal with the U's on 6 May 2011. He made his debut for the first-team as a late substitute for John-Joe O'Toole the following day in a 2–1 home victory over Bristol Rovers.[4][5]

Sanderson had to wait for almost three years for his second Colchester United appearances. He came on as an 84th-minute substitute for David Wright in a 2–1 away defeat to Leyton Orient on 1 March 2014.[6]

Ebbsfleet United

edit

Following his release from Colchester, Sanderson joined Conference South side Ebbsfleet United during the summer of 2014, linking up with the club for their pre-season activities. His signing was completed on 5 August 2014.[7] He was sent out on loan to Lewes on 11 August,[8] making two appearances.[9] He then made his first and only league appearance for Ebbsfleet as an 84th-minute substitute for Charlie Sheringham on 4 October during a 3–0 away win over Farnborough.[10] He had already appeared in Ebbsfleet's 2–0 Kent Senior Cup defeat by Charlton Athletic and as a substitute in their 7–1 FA Cup win over Hythe Town.[9]

Sanderson returned to Essex in November 2014 when he joined Grays Athletic in a month-long loan deal.[11] He played three games for Grays during his stay, including an appearance in a 3–1 Isthmian League Cup win over Tilbury, a 2–0 FA Trophy second qualifying round defeat to Tonbridge Angels, and a 1–1 away draw at Concord Rangers in the fourth round of the Essex Senior Cup.[12]

On 5 June 2015, Sanderson was released by the club.[13]

Chania

edit

Sanderson began playing for Greek Football League side Chania in September 2015. He made his debut on 29 September in a 1–0 win at Pankritio Stadium over Ergotelis, before scoring his first professional goal in the Greek Cup win against Olympiacos Volou on 29 October.[10]
