Vidal scored his first senior goal on 14 January 2017, his team's second in the 2–1 home win against RCD Espanyol B.[3] He featured in 42 matches during the season, as his team missed out on promotion in the play-offs.[4] On 4 May, he renewed his contract until 2020.[5]
On 18 August 2017, Vidal made his first-team – and La Liga – debut, starting in a 1–0 home victory over UD Las Palmas.[6] He scored his first goal in the competition on 24 September, helping to beat hosts Real Sociedad 3–2.[7]
Osasuna
editOn 13 July 2018, Vidal signed a four-year deal with Segunda División club CA Osasuna, with Valencia retaining 50% of his federative rights.[8] He played 38 games in his debut campaign, adding five assists in a return to the top tier as champions.[9][10]
On 26 January 2024, after losing his starting spot to Jesús Areso,[11] Vidal moved to fellow top-flight RCD Mallorca on loan for the remainder of the season.[12]
