TVMK

In 2004, he signed for Meistriliiga club TVMK. In the 2005 season, he won his first Meistriliiga title, scoring a league record 41 goals, which put him in 12th place in the European Golden Shoe.

Helsingborg

In 2006, he signed for Swedish Allsvenskan club Helsingborgs IF, to potentially partner fellow striker Henrik Larsson. However, Neemelo was unable to secure a first-team position and was loaned back to TVMK. In 2007, he was once again loaned out, this time to Superettan club GIF Sundsvall.

MYPA

In February 2008, he signed a two-year contract with Finnish Veikkausliiga club MYPA.

Zulte Waregem

Levadia

In 2009, Neemelo returned to Estonia and signed with Levadia. He won his second Meistriliiga title in the 2009 season.
