In the summer of 1990, Puhalak moved abroad to Spain and joined Segunda División club Celta, but quickly returned to Yugoslavia and helped Sarajevo avoid relegation from the top flight.
After a comeback stint at Spartak Subotica, Puhalak moved abroad for the second time, signing with Hungarian club Kispest-Honvéd in the summer of 1994.[1]
In the summer of 1997, Puhalak rejoined Spartak Subotica well into his 30s, going on to score double-digit goals in two consecutive First League of FR Yugoslavia seasons (1997–98 and 1998–99).
