Club career

Audax Italiano

Born in the capital city of Chile, Santiago, Jelves started his career at the age of fourteen, after he was signed by Audax Italiano. He remained there as a youth player until 2007 when he trained with the first-team squad, under the direction of the coach Raul Toro.^[2]

After three years without play, in 2010, Jelves made his Audax Italiano debut, in a 2–1 win over Huachipato at the CAP Stadium. However, he only was featured in one game more in the entire season. For the next season, the coach Omar Labruna had more consideration in Jelves, and was able of make eight appearances of seventeen matches that disputed the team during the 2011 Apertura Tournament.
