Mekki spent his youth at the Reading academy, before switching to Aldershot Town in 2006. He signed a professional contract with the club in the summer of 2009. In January 2011 he was loaned out to Southern Football League Premier Division side Oxford City, scoring two goals in six appearances. He made his Aldershot debut on 12 February 2011, replacing Jermaine McGlashan 81 minutes into a goalless draw at the Recreation Ground. [2] He made his second appearance on 8 March, playing 45 minutes of a 1–0 win over Torquay United after replacing Albert Jarrett at half-time. [3] On 26 April, it was announced that he had signed a two-year contract extension with the club. [4] Mekki left Aldershot on 17 June 2014 after failing to agree terms on a new deal. [5]

Mekki joined Barnet on a short-term deal on 12 August 2014. [6] He made his debut when he started a home game against Dartford on 25 August.

Mekki signed for Dover Athletic on 15 January 2015 until the end of the season. [9]

At the end of the 2016–2017 season, Mekki was released by Tranmere and signed for National League rivals Bromley. [12]
