Club Career
Viitorul Constanța
Nedelcu made his professional debut for Viitorul Constanța on 18 July 2014, in a 3–3 draw with Botoșani counting for the season's Cupa Ligii; Viitorul eventually went further after winning the penalty shoot-out 5–3. His first Liga I appearance came ten days later in a 0–0 away draw with CSM Studențesc Iași.
FCSB
On 10 August 2017, Nedelcu signed a five-year contract for FCSB with a €50 million release clause, having initially refused to join one month earlier by arguing that he dreams of playing abroad. The deal also included the transfer of Viitorul teammate Romario Benzar and cost the Bucharest side a combined €2.7 million. His former club retained interest on a future transfer fee, rights which were bought in November for an additional €500,000.
Nedelcu made his debut for the Roș-albaștrii in a 1–1 league draw with Astra Giurgiu, on 12 August 2017. On 5 November, he scored his first goal in a 2–1 victory over Concordia Chiajna. Nedelcu often struggled with injuries during his stint in the capital, and on 12 June 2021 was sent on a one-year loan to 2. Bundesliga club Fortuna Dusseldorf with a purchase option.
