After the runner-up in 2014, he left the club and was initially without a club for some time. It was only at the end of October 2014 that he signed with the Turkish Champions League participant Beşiktaş Istanbul , where he and his compatriot Ivan Ninčević formed the wing tongs. From summer 2015 he is under contract with the Croatian club RK Našice . He ended his career in summer 2019.
