On 25 February 2011, he moved to Ukrainian club Karpaty Lviv on loan from Al-Nassr. He scored his first goal for Karpaty, in their 1–0 win over Shakhtar Donetsk. In June, he signed a permanent deal with Karpaty after the 2010–11 season.
On 14 July 2014 it was announced Cociș had joined Chicago Fire of Major League Soccer.[4] He re-signed with the club on 23 January 2016.[5] On 23 November 2016 Chicago Fire announced they did not exercise his option for the next year.[6]
