Club career

Valencia

Born in El Campello, Alicante, Valencian Community, Vidal joined Valencia CF's youth academy in 2009 from Hércules CF. He made his debut as a senior with the reserves on 23 March 2014, coming on as a second-half substitute for José Gayà in a 2–0 away loss to Atlético Levante UD in the Segunda División B.

Vidal scored his first senior goal on 14 January 2017, his team's second in the 2–1 home win against RCD Espanyol B. He featured in 42 matches during the season, as his team missed out on promotion in the play-offs. On 4 May, he renewed his contract until 2020.

On 18 August 2017, Vidal made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, starting in a 1–0 home victory over UD Las Palmas. He scored his first goal in the competition on 24 September, helping to beat hosts Real Sociedad 3–2.

Osasuna

On 13 July 2018, Vidal signed a four-year deal with Segunda División club CA Osasuna, with Valencia retaining 50% of his federative rights. He played 38 games in his debut campaign, adding five assists in a return to the top tier as champions.

On 26 January 2024, after losing his starting spot to Jesús Areso, Vidal moved to fellow top-flight RCD Mallorca on loan for the remainder of the season.
