Career
[edit]Wendt started his career playing for the youth sides of BK Höllviken and Trelleborg, signing his first professional contracted with Trelleborg.[1] During his time with Trelleborg, Wendt went on to make 17 appearances in the Superettan, Sweden's second tier.
His performances earned him a move to Polish club Lechia Gdańsk on 18 July 2024.[2][3] He made his Ekstraklasa debut the following day, coming on as a late substitute against Śląsk Wrocław.[4] In his first season with the club, he made a total of 13 league appearances and scored one goal.[5] The following season, Wendt was not initially in the squad's plans, leading him to return to Trelleborg on a short-term loan.[6] Upon his return, he made a further 10 appearances for the club, scoring two goals, but was unable to help Trelleborg from being relegated at the end of the Superettan season.
On 10 March 2026, he was loaned to Sweden again, this time joining Superettan side Östers IF until the end of July.[7]
