In 1997, he moved to Salernitana, where he would go on to make 133 appearances scoring 13 goals between 1997 and 2002. Although he was loaned out to Napoli, for the 2000–2001 season.

Later in 2003, he was sold to Serie A side Reggina Calcio, where he would spend a solid 4 years in Calabria, all in Italy's top flight. He scored 5 goals for Reggina in a total of over 120 appearances. In 2007, despite having a successful spell in Calabria, Tedesco transferred to Sicilian side Calcio Catania. Since joining Catania, he has made over 50 appearances scoring 4 goals in just two seasons. Under former coaches, Walter Zenga and Silvio Baldini Tedesco was consistently part of the starting XI and is always a hard working consistent performer on the left wing.
