Early life

[edit]

Club career

[edit]

Elloumi began playing with Whitecaps FC Academy in League1 British Columbia in 2024.[4]

On 9 June 2024, he made his professional debut with Whitecaps FC 2 in MLS Next Pro, in a 4–0 victory over Los Angeles FC 2.[5] On 6 October 2024, he scored his first goal in a 3–1 loss to Houston Dynamo 2.[6] In June 2025, he signed a professional contract with Whitecaps FC 2 (after previously playing as an academy call-up).[7] In June 2025, he signed a short-term loan with the Vancouver Whitecaps FC first team.[8] He signed additional loans with the first team that month as well.[9][10] He made his Major League Soccer debut on 14 June 2025, against the Columbus Crew.[11] At the end of the 2025 season, he was named the Whitecaps FC 2 player of the year.[12]

On 12 September 2025, Elloumi signed a Homegrown Player contract with the Vancouver Whitecaps FC through the 2028 season, with options for 2029 and 2030.[13][14] He scored his first MLS goal the following night at the age of 17 in the Whitecaps' 7–0 victory over the Philadelphia Union, becoming the first Whitecaps homegrown player in club history to score on his home debut.[15][16]

International career

[edit]

Born in Canada, Elloumi is of Tunisian descent.[2]

Youth

[edit]

In August 2025, Elloumi was called up to the Canada U18 team for a series of friendlies, although he ultimately left the camp to remain with the Whitecaps to play in league matches.[17]

In September 2025, the Tunisian Football Federation announced that Elloumi had agreed to represent the nation at international level.[18] He was called up to the Tunisia U23, where scored in his debut, a 3–0 win over Iraq U23 on 11 October 2025.[19]

Canada

[edit]

In January 2026, Elloumi was named to the Canada senior team for the first time for a training camp and friendly against Guatemala.[20] He appeared in the match against Guatemala, in his first senior appearance, however, as it was designated a B-level friendly, it did not count as an official senior cap.[21]

Tunisia

[edit]

In March 2026, Elloumi was called up to the Tunisia senior team for two friendly matches against Haiti and his country of birth, Canada.[22] Later that year, on 15 May, he was included in Tunisia's squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.[23]
