On 22 January 2017, he returned to Russia, signing with FC Anzhi Makhachkala.[10]

In January 2018, his Anzhi contract was dissolved following his arrest in the autumn of 2017 in Belgium. The charges for his arrest were not disclosed at the time. Anzhi's director of sports Aleksandr Tantsyura declined to comment further.[11]

In February 2019, he joined Palanga.[12]

On 29 February 2020, FC Ararat Yerevan announced the signing of Phibel.[13] He left the club again in July 2020.
