Gedeon sustained a knee injury after playing just five games in the 2003/04 season, and although he attempted to make a comeback in a game against Slovácko, he lasted just 17 minutes and did not feature for Slavia's first team for the rest of the season.

In September 2005, Gedeon suffered a knee injury in a game against Viktoria Plzeň. Gedeon missed two months of the season with the injury before returning to Slavia's first team in a match against Blšany in November, where he wore the captain's armband.

In January 2006, Gedeon headed to Liechtenstein to play for FC Vaduz in the Swiss Challenge League, signing a $2 1/2$-year contract. However, in July of the same year Gedeon left Vaduz and joined Czech manager Josef Csaplár at Polish side Wisła Płock.

In July 2008 Gedeon signed for FK Dukla Prague in the Czech 2. Liga. After missing the autumn part of the 2010–11 Czech 2.

He signed another contract extension in February 2015, this time until June 2016. In August 2015 he moved on loan to Most, the club which he had left seven years prior. Gedeon joined FC Chomutov on loan as an amateur player in the spring of 2016.

On 20 November 2002, Gedeon made his debut for the Czech Republic in a friendly match against Sweden, which finished 3–3. He subsequently played in February 2003 against France and played the whole 90 minutes of the match against Turkey in April 2003.
