He started his career with Chamois Niortais, where he made 46 league appearances in four years, including a number of games in Ligue 2.[1] He moved to FC Gueugnon in 2008 and played 20 league games for the side during the 2008–09 campaign. He was released by the club in the summer of 2009 and spent the following six months without a team before signing for Dagenham & Redbridge on 22 January 2010.[2] He made his Football League debut the next day, coming on as a substitute in the 1–2 defeat to Shrewsbury Town. He scored his first goal for the club in a 2-1 win over Burton Albion on 17 April 2010.[3] Despite being signed as a full-back, the Dagenham manager John Still played him the centre of midfield. It seemed to work, and he quickly became a first team regular, and became liked by the fans for his hard work and tirelessness.He played in the winning team in the League Two playoff final at Wembley on 30 May 2010.[4]
He has continued playing in the 2010–11 season, despite receiving a concussion in the match against Colchester United. By the conclusion of the 2010–11 season, Vincelot ended as top league scorer for Dagenham & Redbridge with 12 goals.
On 15 July 2011, he signed for newly promoted Championship side Brighton & Hove Albion.
