Cornelis was part of a last minute transfer deal in the late evening of 31 August 2009. Cercle Brugge and Genk came to an extensive agreement: Cornelis was sold to Cercle Brugge, his teammate Jelle Vossen joined him on loan. Thomas Buffel made the opposite move.
Following a trial at Notts County, Cornelis joined Deinze for the 2015–16 season.[1]
After having played for lower league club Zwevezele from 2017, Cornelis took over as player-coach in 2019.[2] One year later, he retired from playing football and continued as the team's manager.[3]
After Zwevezele withdrew from the national competitions after the 2021–22 season,[4] Cornelis was appointed new head coach of Belgian Division 2 club Lokeren-Temse on 4 June 2022.[5]
