Club career
Born in Herencia, Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha, Elías joined Atlético Madrid's youth setup in 1995, aged 13. He made his senior debuts in the 2000–01 campaign with Atlético Aviación, the club's farm team.
In the 2001 summer Elías moved to CD Numancia in Segunda División. He played his first match as a professional on 26 August 2001, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–2 home draw against UD Salamanca.
After appearing in 23 matches in 2001–02, Elías was never utilized in the following season and moved to RCD Mallorca in January 2003, being assigned to the reserves in the third level. After a short loan stint at CD Logroñés, he moved to another reserve team, Albacete Balompié B in Tercera División.
On 26 February 2005 Elías made his first team – and La Liga – debut, starting in a 1–2 away loss against RCD Espanyol; it was his maiden appearance in the competition.
Elías resumed his career in the third and fourth levels in the following seasons, representing FC Cartagena, SD Ponferradina, Lorca Deportiva CF, UB Conquense, Burgos CF, Manzanares CF (two stints), CF Gimnástico Alcázar and CP Cacereño.
