Nadolo began his senior career with Highlanders F.C. in his native Zimbabwe, breaking into the senior squad in 2014. By 2016, Nadolo had attracted attention from abroad, going on trial in South Africa.[2]

Two years later, Nadolo made a move to South Africa, signing with National First Division club Witbank Spurs.[3] He made his competitive debut for the club on 3 February 2018, coming on as a 68th-minute substitute for Peter Mubayiwa in a 2–1 home victory over Real Kings F.C.[4] After less than a year with the club, and after making just four league appearances, Nadolo returned to Zimbabwe, signing with Telone F.C.

In February 2020, Nadolo joined Dynamos Harare.[5]
