Following his brief season with Shakhtar, he ventured to Southern Ukraine to sign with Real Pharma Odesa.[1] He would re-sign with Odesa for another season in 2016.[5] After 3+1⁄2 seasons with Odesa, he signed a contract with Naftovyk Okhtyrka for the remainder of the 2017–18 season in the country's second-tier league.[6][7] In total, he would play in 45 matches in his first run with Odesa.[4]
He would play in 9 matches for Naftovyk.[4] For the 2018–19 season, he returned to the third division to play with Bukovyna Chernivtsi.[8] After a season with Chernivtsi, he departed from the team.[9][10][11] In 2019, he returned to his former club Real Pharma Odesa for the first portion of the campaign.[12] Viksych would compete in 7 matches in his final season with the Odesa-based club.[4] After his stint in southern Ukraine, he returned to the western side to once more sign with Bukovyna.[3] However, he failed to make an appearance with the club and was released shortly after the announcement of signing.[13]
