He moved to Real Madrid, another rival of Barcelona, from Espanyol in the summer of 2018. He had scored 20 goals for Espanyol youth teams the previous season, and Real was reported to have made the youngster's signing a top priority, also including Andri's younger brother Dani in the deal. His first season in Madrid was successful, as his performances earned him a place in the U19 squad at only 16 years old, where he scored several goals, under Raúl's management. He also finished the season as the top scorer for Real Madrid Juvenil C (Under-17).
In July 2020, Andri tore an anterior cruciate ligament in his knee and was expected to miss six months. In July 2021, Andri was promoted to the Castilla side, and in September 2021, he was included in Real Madrid's Champions League squad for the first time. In the summer of 2022, Andri found himself out of favour in the Castilla side, leading him to leave and sign for IFK Norrköping.

On 25 October 2025, Guðjohnsen scored his first goal for Blackburn Rovers, netting the winner in a 2–1 victory over Southampton, which was also the club's first home win of the season. The following match, Guðjohnsen scored a brace for Rovers in a 2–0 win over Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

He missed the final months of the campaign after initially suffering a hamstring injury in March, before sustaining an ankle injury during his rehabilitation. On 13 March 2026, Rovers announced that Guðjohnsen had signed a new long-term contract with the club, with the length of the deal undisclosed.
Guðjohnsen scored in consecutive matches at the start of the 2026–27 season, scoring the equaliser in a 2–1 win over Burton Albion in the first round of the EFL Cup, before scoring in a 2–2 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the opening round of the Championship at Molineux Stadium. He scored again, in his third consecutive game, during a 2–1 over Middlesbrough at Ewood Park.
