In 2015, he returned to the third-tier league to secure a contract with Veres Rivne.[11][12] He would serve as the team captain and assist the club in securing promotion to the second tier.[13][14] In total, he played in 11 matches for Veres.[5] He initially remained with Veres during the club's preseason camp in preparation for the 2016–17 season but ultimately departed to seek other playing options.[14][15]
The next season he returned to the second tier to play with Inhulets Petrove.[16][17] In his return season to the second division, he appeared in 19 matches and scored 1 goal.[5]

The following season he helped the club win their third regular season title.[22] Vorkuta would also go on to claim the ProSound Cup against Scarborough in a penalty shootout.[23][22] He also made his second championship final appearance throughout the 2021 season where Vorkuta was defeated by Scarborough.[24][25]
In 2022, Vorkuta was renamed FC Continentals and he re-signed with the club for the season.[26] Throughout the 2022 season, he helped the Continentals to secure a playoff berth by finishing fourth in the standings.[27][28] Tkachov made his third consecutive championship final appearance against Scarborough once more where he won his second championship title.[29][30]
