In the summer of 2003, he joined Czech club 1. FK Příbram on a free transfer.[1] He played just two games in the Gambrinus liga before moving back to Switzerland to play for FC Sion.

He then played in the Swiss 1. Liga and 2. Liga with FC Bulle and CS Chênois, for a short while, before returning to the Czech Republic with FK Fotbal Třinec in 2007. He achieved some good form while playing in the Czech 2. Liga in the 2007/08 season, and in July 2008, he signed for 1.
