At the end of the season, in May 2010, he left the club by mutual agreement.[5]
In 2010, he returned to the field as a player for AC Chapelain, in La Chapelle-sur-Erdre, a team playing in the Division d'Honneur. He played two seasons,[6] before becoming a part of the club's technical staff, allegedly as a sports coordinator and responsible for the youth sector.[7] From the 2014–15 season, he was promoted to the first team staff, as an assistant coach on the first team under manager Nordine Chaouch.[8]
Ahead of the 2016–17 season, he was appointed head coach of AC Chapelain.[9] He left the club ahead of the 2021–22 season, as he had been appointed manager of Basse-Goulaine.[10]
