On 9 August 2020, Elitim agreed to a one-year loan deal with Segunda División side Ponferradina. He made his professional debut on 20 September, coming on as a late substitute for Yuri de Souza in a 2–0 away win against Albacete Balompié.

On 9 July 2021, Elitim returned to Spain, joining Deportivo de La Coruña on a season-long loan deal. On 2 July of the following year, he moved to Racing de Santander on a one-year loan deal.

On 27 June 2023, he signed a three-year contract with the Polish Ekstraklasa side Legia Warsaw.
