Biography

On 3 December 2017, Jedlička made his league debut for Mladá Boleslav in a Czech First League match against Sparta Prague, ending in 0–3 loss for his club.[4] He scored an own goal in the twelfth minute by misjudging Eidar Civić's cross, parrying the ball into the goalpost and deflecting it into his own net.[4] This was the first Czech First League goal to be confirmed by video review.[5]

On 21 February 2019, Jedlička signed for Slovak club DAC Dunajská Streda with a contract until 2022.[6] He returned to the Czech Republic shortly afterwards, signing a three-year contract with Viktoria Plzeň.[7] On 14 November 2025, Jedlička debuted for the Czech senior team in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification against San Marino, which ended in a 1–0 victory for the Czechs.[8]

On 8 January 2026, Jedlička joined Baník Ostrava on a half-year loan deal.[9]
