Football career
Vidangossy began his career in the youth squad of Club Deportivo Universidad Católica, but finished his football grooming at Unión Española. He made his first division debuts in 2005 and became a constant in the starting lineup.
In 2007, Vidangossy was selected to play for the Chilean U-20 national team in the 2007 South American Youth Championship that took place in Paraguay; there, he netted twice against Bolivia.
Chile went on to qualify for the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup that took place in Canada. In the quarterfinals against Nigeria, Vidangossy scored the last goal in a 4-0 extra time. Before scoring in the 122nd minute, he had fallen to the floor with cramps; Chile eventually finished third, the national side's best ever performance in the category.
After those performances, Vidangossy was signed to a five-year contract with Villarreal CF in Spain, joining compatriots Manuel Pellegrini (coach) and Matías Fernández.[1] However, he would never play any official games for the club, as all of the team's foreign player spots were used up. He was quickly loaned out to fellow La Liga side UD Almeria, but met the same fate.
Vidangossy was subsequently loaned to Chilean club Audax Italiano, which played in the 2008 Libertadores Cup. Afterwards, he stayed in the country, loaned again, now to Corporación Deportiva Everton de Viña del Mar.
On 23 June 2009, Vidangossy was confirmed as a new Ñublense player, but he was released after only two months, momentarily retiring from football.[2]
Vidangossy joined Ceará Sporting Club of the Brazilian first division on 17 February 2010.[3] However, shortly after, he returned to his country, signing for San Luis Quillota.
