Club career

[edit]

In 2014, Jelavić signed for Atlético Madrid C.[1]

Jelavić made his debut for Hajduk, the club he spent four formative seasons with, on 31 July 2011 in a 1–0 defeat against NK Zadar.[2] It was his only appearance for the 2011-12 season. For the second half of the 2012-13 season, Jelavić went out on loan to NK Slaven Belupo, making 8 appearances of which 3 were in the starting line-up, but didn't score a goal. For the 2014-15 season, Jelavić joined Atvidabergs FF. He scored 13 goals in 12 games for the club's youth side and 1 goal in 19 games for the first team, 1 of those appearances being from the starting line-up. For the 2015-16 season, Jelavić returned to Croatia, joining NK Solin. He was sent off on debut against Dinamo Zagreb II but scored in his next game against NK Lučko.

Jelavić spent the 2021/22 season in the Cypriot Second Division playing for Akritas Chlorakas, scoring 11 goals in 26 matches.[3] He moved subsequently to the Slovenian Second Division side NK Krka, leaving the club as a free agent in January 2023,[4] having scored one goal in twelve matches.
