Eljif Elmas, born on 24 September 1999 (age 27), is a Macedonian winger now with Atalanta, where he wears squad number 99. Primarily used from the left, he has a current market value of around £13m, according to Transfermarkt.
His early senior football gave him the platform, but Napoli is the club that has shaped the career. Across six seasons there, Elmas made 176 league appearances and scored 15 league goals, becoming a familiar, useful part of a side that asked plenty from its wide and attacking midfield players.
His most productive league campaign came in 2022–23, when he scored six times in 36 appearances for Napoli. That was the spell when his contribution carried a bit more edge in the final third, rather than simply being another tidy part of the rotation.
At Atalanta in 2026–27, Elmas has made seven Serie A appearances and scored once, while also adding two Conference League appearances and one goal. His total for the club across all competitions stands at nine appearances and two goals.
Elmas’s career is best understood through his long Napoli spell, with Atalanta now the next substantial chapter. He has been a steady, established top-flight player rather than a headline act, and his record reflects that plainly enough.
