Club career

Bury

Bedeau is a product of the Leyton Orient and Bury football academies, after impressing at a young age for Bury, debuting at sixteen. Bedeau was given his professional debut by caretaker-manager Chris Brass at the age of 16 in a League One tie against Millwall, in which Bury suffered a 3–2 defeat.[3] After appearing on the Bury bench several times, Bedeau was given his next start in a 4–2 defeat against Bristol Rovers.[4] He played a total of seven games for Bury.

Aston Villa

On 31 January 2017, Bedeau joined Championship club Aston Villa on a two-and-a-half-year deal for a fee around the margin of £900,000.[5] Bedeau did not make any first team appearances in competitive games for Aston Villa, but was a main stay of the Under-23 squad, with 42 appearances, excluding cup matches. In his first full season with the 23s (2017–18) they won the Premier League Cup and finished runners up in the league.[6] In one of his last appearances, he captained the squad to a 5–1 victory over Manchester United U23s.[7]

Scunthorpe United

On 31 January 2019, Bedeau joined League One side Scunthorpe United.[8] He started sparingly, making his debut in September 2019 in a 1–1 draw against Leicester City U21s, in the Football League Trophy.[9] He started only two more games that calendar year, against Sunderland (in the Football League Trophy);[10] and Walsall (in League Two).[11] However, he became a regular starter by the end of the 2019–20 season and into the 2020–21 season. He scored his first professional goal in a 2–2 draw against Crewe Alexandra.[12] He scored again in a 2–0 win against Oldham Athletic.[13] He made a total of 53 appearances for Scunthorpe, 45 of them being in the league. He was one of 17 players released by Scunthorpe at the end of the 2020–21 season.[14]

Burnley

Following his release from Scunthorpe he signed for Burnley on a two-year deal with the option of a further 12-months and was placed into the Under-23 squad.[15]

Morecambe

On 4 January 2022, Bedeau joined EFL League One side Morecambe on loan for the remainder of the 2021–22 season.[16] He started Morecambe's next game, which was a FA Cup tie against Tottenham Hotspur. Bedeau managed to keep a clean sheet, but came off after 65 minutes.[17] Morecambe eventually lost 3–1.[18] On 9 August 2022, Bedeau made his loan move to Morecambe permanent for an undisclosed fee.[19]

Notts County F.C.

On 11 June 2024, Bedeau joined EFL League Two side Notts County F.C. on a three-year deal.[20]
