On 18 July 2018, Mourad moved to fellow fourth division side Orihuela CF. [4] Roughly one year later he signed for Elche CF, being assigned to the reserves also in level four. [5]

Mourad made his first team debut for Elche on 15 December 2019, coming on as a late substitute for Josan in a 2–3 home loss against UD Las Palmas in the Segunda División. [6] Two days later he scored his first goal for the Franjiverdes, netting the opener in a 2–0 away defeat of Gimnástica Segoviana CF for the season's Copa del Rey. [7]

On 6 October 2020, Mourad was loaned to Segunda División B side CD Alcoyano for the 2020–21 season. [8] The following 20 August, he returned to the club on loan for a further year. [9]

On 1 September 2022, Mourad joined second division team Burgos CF on loan for one year. [10] He scored his first professional goal on 16 October, netting a last-minute winner in a 2–1 home success over CD Mirandés.

Back to Elche in July 2023, Mourad started to feature more regularly with the side, and renewed his contract until 2027 on 17 March 2024. [11] He scored ten goals overall during the 2024–25 campaign, being the club's top scorer as they achieved promotion to La Liga. [12]
