Stoycho Nedkov (Bulgarian: Стойчо Недков; born 1986) is a Bulgarian footballer who plays as a winger and a wing-back. He is a disciple of the Levski Sofia youth academy, where he was team captain.
Nedkov joined the Levski youth academy in 1998, scoring a total of 90 goals in 142 games.
In 2004, as a member of Levski's U-19 squad, he gained notoriety during a friendly match versus Levski's men's team when he scored the winning goal against national team goalie Georgi Petkov.[1]
He went on to score 14 goals during the 2004/05 season as Levski won the U-19 title.
Nedkov's contribution to winning the youth title was noticed by scouts for Portuguese League side Académica de Coimbra, who invited him to Portugal for a tryout.[2] He was ultimately unable to join the club as the quota for non-EU players had already been filled.
He went on to play for Septemvri Sofia, Vihren Sandanski, Orfeas Nicosia (gaining promotion to next division),[3] and Vitosha Bistritsa, with whom he won the Amateur League Cup in 2012.[4]
Nedkov is a graduate of the National Sports Academy with a bachelor's degree in football coaching and holds a UEFA B Licence.
