After the club's relegation he moved to CFR Cluj, under player-coach Dorinel Munteanu, reaching with his new club into the Intertoto Cup finals of 2005.[2] The following season, he transferred to another Liga I club, UTA Arad. In 2007, he is brought by Dan Petrescu into the squad of Unirea Urziceni, a team that would gain its first championship title in history two years later. After that, followed a short spell at Diósgyőr in the Hungarian First Division, before signing as a player-manager for Unirea Tărlungeni in the Romanian Liga III, a club near his hometown of Braşov. Under his management, Unirea Tărlungeni promoted for the first time in history in the Romanian Liga II. After coaching Unirea Tărlungeni for a year in Romanian Liga II în January 2015 was employed by FC Brașov as assistant coach for the second part of the 2014-2015 Romanian Liga I, followed by an employment as head-coach at Academica Clinceni in the Romanian Liga II. In June 2017, he was appointed as head-coach at Târgu Mureș, team that has relegated from the Romanian Liga I to the Romanian Liga II, where he spent only 3 months, resigning after the 6th match in the league, when ASA 2013 Târgu Mureș was sitting 3rd in the table. After his short spell at Târgu Mureș he took over the management of FK Miercurea Ciuc, finishing second at the end of the 2017–2018 season of Liga III, highest ranking in the club history. In June 2018, he accepted the offer from Sportul Snagov, team that finished 10th in the 2017–2018 season of Liga II, and under his command, the team becomes the biggest surprise of the competition, finishing the first part of the 2018–2019 season at the top of the table.
