Club career[edit]

Carrick Rangers[edit]

In Addis’ first season with Carrick Rangers, they finished top of the NIFL Championship and therefore were promoted to the NIFL Premiership. Although now an established centre-half, Addis played both up front and centre-half during his time at Carrick Rangers.[2]

Glentoran[edit]

Glentoran announced the signing of Addis in June 2013.[3] Addis was part of the Glentoran squad which won the 2014-15 Irish Cup, with Addis coming on as a substitute late in the final against Portadown.[4] In July 2016, Addis signed a new two-year deal with Glentoran.[5] He left the club in 2018.

Ballymena United[edit]

Ballymena United announced the signing of Addis on a two-year in May 2018.[6] During his time at Ballymena, the Sky Blues made it to the 2018-19 League Cup Final, and were defeated 1-0 by Linfield.[7] One year later, Addis’ Ballymena side were defeated 2-1 by Cliftonville in a dramatic County Antrim Shield final in January 2020.[8] Addis left Ballymena in 2021.[9]

Cliftonville[edit]

Addis signed for Cliftonville in the summer of 2021, and quickly became a fan favourite due to impressive performances.[10] He scored his first goal for the Reds in October 2021 in a NIFL League Cup fixture against Ards.[11] On 26 February 2022, Addis scored his first Irish League goal for Cliftonville against Crusaders in the North Belfast Derby.[12]
