There is also an Andrew Johnson, an England footballer, who currently plays for Everton.
Andy Johnson (born May 2, 1974 in Bristol) is a Welsh international football player who is currently plays in The Championship for Leicester City.
His career started out at Norwich City, before joining Nottingham Forest in 1997, failing to give Johnson the opportunity to fulfil his potential at the club.
Having made over one hundred appearances in Forest's squad, he moved on to West Brom on account of his contract expiring at the end of the season. His appearances for WBA ensured that they achieved the second promotion spot in the division and thus moved up to the Premiership.
Andy Johnson made his 100th league appearance for West Bromwich Albion during the 2003/04 league season. He has made several appearances for his chosen country, Wales, but is yet to score a goal in international competition.
Sinced joining Leicester City in the summer of 2006, he has been heavily critisised for his preformances by the Leicester City faithful, especially in the 2-1 away defeat to Sheffield Wednesday
