Club career

Bury

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 first start in a 4–2 defeat against Bristol Rovers.[4]

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. In one of his last appearances he captained the squad to a 5:1 victory over Manchester United U23s.

Scunthorpe United

Two years later, on 31 January 2019, Bedeau joined League One team Scunthorpe United.[6] He was one of 17 players released by Scunthorpe at the end of the 2020–21 season.[7]

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.[8]
