In the summer of 2010, he returned to his former club, Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk, to compete in the country's third division league.[8] In his final season with Dniprodzerzhynsk, he started against premier league side Illichivets Mariupol in the 2013–14 Ukrainian Cup.[9]
Following his departure from the professional circuit, he joined with VPK-Ahro Shevchenkivka in the Dnipropetrovsk regional league.[10] For the remainder of the 2013 season, he played with FC Olimpik Petrykivka until the 2015 season.[1][11] In 2015, he played with Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk's reserve team.[1]
