After spending a year on loan to RFC Seraing, Didillon returned to Metz for the 2015–16 Ligue 2 season and helped the club re-gain promotion to Ligue 1.

Anderlecht

After ten years with Metz, Didillon signed with Belgian champions, Anderlecht of the Belgian Jupiler Pro League in June 2018. On 20 September, he made his UEFA Europa League debut in a 1–0 loss against Slovakian club, Spartak Trnava.

Didillon quickly established himself as the starter in the Anderlecht goal: in his first season he did not miss a single league match and was only replaced by backup Frank Boeckx in the cup match against Union Saint-Gilloise and the final Europa League group match against Dinamo Zagreb. Didillon was praised in the regular competition for his strong reflexes and leadership, and was even called a bright spot in an otherwise meagre season for Anderlecht. However, in the first two days of the play-offs he made mistakes against Genk and Club Brugge after bad footwork, which changed the perception around him.
