Club career

Ellerman started his professional career at Sparta and moved to PSV in 1988. He scored twice in a famous 1989 5–1 Champions' Cup win over previous year's finalists Steaua Bucharest with Romário scoring a hattrick^[4] and he scored the first ever hat-trick in the UEFA Champions League on 16 September 1992 for PSV Eindhoven against Žalgiris Vilnius in a 6–0 win.^[5] In 1994, Ellerman was deemed surplus to requirements and left PSV for FC Twente to replace Boudewijn Pahlplatz who moved the opposite way.^[6] He suffered from a serious knee injury and joined NEC in 1997 after Twente manager Hans Meyer said he did not need Ellerman's services anymore.^[7]

He retired in 2002 while playing for Helmond Sport.^{[citation needed]}
