Leaving the club in June 2007, he joined Wycombe Wanderers in August. After an unsuccessful time with Wanderers, Andre made a surprise return to the Poppies in August 2008 and what a difference in the player. He has put in some brilliant performances under Mark Cooper, showing the Kettering faithful the pure talent he is.

With Lee behind them the defensive unit proved to be the best in the Blue Square North and a season later also the Blue Square Premier. Lee was voted the Club's Player of the Season for 2008-09.
