Kelemen was a member of HKM Zvolen's academy before making his professional debut for the team during the 2016–17 season.

On 1 May 2021, Kelemen left Zvolen in order to continue his development and signed a contract with Czech Extraliga outfit, BK Mladá Boleslav.[4] Quickly adjusting to the ELH in the 2021–22 season, using his size and scoring touch, Kelemen notched 5 goals and 18 points through 44 regular season games. He increased his production in the playoffs, helping Mladá Boleslav reach the semi-finals and finishing with 9 goals and 12 points in just 14 post-season games.
