Zhelev joined Litex Lovech quite young but fought hard to get a place in the first team.

He is the defender who has scored the most goals in the whole history of Bulgarian football.
He has been considered one of the favourite players by Litex fans, due to his dedicated and selfless manner of playing, and his loyalty to the club.
He has been awarded the title "The best player of Litex" in 2006.
On 12 July 2007, Zhelev joined Romanian club Oţelul Galaţi for a fee of €125,000
On 8 November 2009, after a game against FC Timişoara, he and his teammate Stoyan Kolev decided to leave Oţelul because of the financial situation of the club.
On 5 January 2010, Steaua and Oţelul agree Zhelev and Ochiroşii swap deal.
On 10 January 2010, Steaua signed the Bulgarian centre-back on a free transfer until June 2011.

At the end of the 2010–11 season, Zhelev returned to Bulgaria and joined Slavia Sofia on a free transfer.

Zhelev was frozen out of the first team in October 2013 (after Asen Bukarev had been replaced as coach) and in December 2013 joined Vereya Stara Zagora in the third division of Bulgarian football.
In March 2015, Zhelev took over from Radostin Kishishev as head coach of Vereya Stara Zagora.
