Feddal joined UE Vilajuïga in the 2008 summer, making his senior debuts with the side in Tercera División. In July 2009 he signed a three-year deal with Segunda División B side Terrassa FC,[5] but moved to CD Teruel in the fourth tier in January of the following year.

On 13 August 2010 Feddal signed for CD San Roque de Lepe in the third division, after being previously on trial.[6] In May of the following year he moved to RCD Espanyol, being assigned to the reserves in the same level.[7]
