A broken foot was followed by a loan to Strømsgodset IF.
Loan to Strømsgodset IF
On March 31, 2011, the last day of the Norwegian transfer window, Elabdellaoui was awarded to the Drammen club Strømsgodset IF together with his teammates Mohammed Abu and Razak Nuhu until the start of the season in England . His debut on April 3, 2011 ended with a 5-1 loss to Start Kristiansand . He played eight games until he broke his foot against Fredrikstad FK on May 28, 2011 and returned to Manchester to recover . On September 1, 2011, he returned to Drammen until the end of the 2011 season and played twice with the team.
After the end of that season, Strømsgodset IF wanted to loan Elabdellaoui again for the 2012 season, but Elabdellaoui was reluctant to play at Marienlyst Stadium again, fearing that the artificial turf would injure him again. So he initially returned to Manchester City .
Loan to Rotterdam

In his first three games he prepared three goals. In May 2013, Eintracht Braunschweig made use of the purchase option and signed a contract with Elabdellaoui until June 30, 2015. During this time, he made his football breakthrough and became a national player.
At the end of the season he rose to second place in the Bundesliga with Braunschweig . In this he made his debut on August 10, 2013 (1st matchday) in the 0-1 defeat in the home game against Werder Bremen . On September 15, 2013 (5th match day) he scored his first Bundesliga goal with the goal to make it 1-1 in the 70th minute in the home game against 1. FC Nürnberg .
