He was part of the Goan team in the inaugural season, playing almost all matches for them (14). Post his FC Goa days, he played for Apollon Smyrni FC (a club from Greece that plays in the Superleague Greece which is the highest tier tournament in Greece). He played a total of 11 matches, scoring one goal for the Greek club.

After spending one season with them, he then moved to Hapoel Haifa FC that plays in Israeli Premier League, top division league in Israel. He played a total of 55 matches for them. He spent two seasons there and now returns to the ISL team.

FC Goa would be hoping that he would just be as productive as he was in the past. The 29-year-old does have loads of experience and re-signing him would be a step in the right direction for the Gaurs.
