Makhedjouf began his career at age 6 with local club ES Vitry.[1] The following year he joined US Villejuif where he played until age 13 before spending two seasons with US Ivry.

On 23 June 2011, Makhedjouf signed a three-year contract with Ligue 2 side CS Sedan Ardennes.[5]
Following Sedan's fall to the lower divisions due to financial problems, Makhedjouf was left a free agent by the end of the 2012–13 season. He then signed with third-tier team Red Star F.C.[6]
