Football career edit
El-Khotli won the Conference National with Yeovil Town, but was part of the Cambridge United side that was relegated from the Football League two years later.[1] However, El-Kholti remained in Football League Two after joining Chester City for a season, before dropping into non-league football himself with Weymouth.
El-Kholti was sold to Grays Athletic[2] following Weymouth's financial crisis, after a handful of appearances for Grays he left by mutual consent in August 2007.[3] Linking up with ex-Weymouth manager, Garry Hill he then joined Rushden & Diamonds shortly after.[4] However, he was released at the end of the 2007–08 season.[5]
On 17 June 2008, it was announced that El-Kholti had joined fellow Conference side Woking.[6] He then joined Hayes & Yeading United in 2009, but made just one appearance for the club in the Middlesex Senior Cup.[7]
