In September 2005, Gedeon suffered a knee injury in a game against Viktoria Plzeň.[6] 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.[4]
In January 2006, Gedeon headed to Liechtenstein to play for FC Vaduz in the Swiss Challenge League, signing a 2+1⁄2-year contract.[7] However, in July of the same year Gedeon left Vaduz and joined Czech manager Josef Csaplár at Polish side Wisła Płock.[8]

On 20 November 2002, Gedeon made his debut for the Czech Republic in a friendly match against Sweden, which finished 3–3.[17] He subsequently played in February 2003 against France and played the whole 90 minutes of the match against Turkey in April 2003.[5]
