===Metalurh Donetsk===
In June 2011, he signed a contract with Metalurh Donetsk, along with Pyunik teammate [[Marcos Pizzelli]].<ref>{{cite web|script-title=ru:Первые новички донецкого "Металлурга"|url=http://metallurg.donetsk.ua/ru/news/archive/7132|publisher=metallurg.donetsk.ua|accessdate=9 March 2013 | language = Russian}}</ref>

On 19 July 2012 in the Europa League soccer match against [[FK Čelik Nikšić]], Ghazaryan made his first hat-trick for Metalurh and gave one assist, thus the Ukrainian club won 7–0. Armenian international midfielder Gevorg Ghazaryan on 26 November 2013 signed a two-year contract with [[FC Shakhter Karagandy]], as various sources said. The 25-year-old midfielder was playing on a loan at [[FC Shakhter Karagandy]]. The Armenian international moved to the club this summer. Earlier this month [[FC Shakhter Karagandy]] won the Cup of Kazakhstan.<ref>{{cite web|title=Gevorg Ghazaryan signs 2-year deal with Shakhter Karagandy|url=http://sport.news.am/eng/news/32931/gevorg-ghazaryan-signs-2-year-deal-with-shakhter-karagandy.html|date=2013-11-26}}</ref> He was among the key players as his club made Europe remember its name after an unexpected victory over [[Celtic F.C.|Celtic]] in the qualifying round of [[UEFA Champions League|Champions League]] play-off.<ref>{{cite web|title=Shakhter Karagandy boss: Gevorg Ghazaryan was good in Celtic game

In January Ghazaryan tried out at [[Eintracht Braunschweig]] but the club wanted to sign him free of charge.In December it was reported that Ghazaryan cannot reach a deal with [[FC Shakhter Karagandy]] as the club was not ready to pay the previously agreed amount.<ref>{{cite web|title=Gevorg Ghazaryan will join FC Kairat|url=http://sport.news.am/eng/news/34969/gevorg-ghazaryan-will-join-fc-kairat.html|date=2014-01-14}}</ref> Eventually, he finished the 2013/14 season with [[Metalurh Donetsk]].

From Athens, he'd leave for another half a season at [[Corfu]] island's [[PAE Kerkyra]].

===Kerkyra===
At his new team, Ghazaryan had the coach's trust and enough playing minutes to prove his value. With one goal and several assists, he was key to the team, except for when he got injured. Injuries and personal motives kept him off the field for some time, but his few games at the island and the solid performances for [[Armenia national football team|Armenian national team]] made Portuguese side [[C.S. Marítimo]] purchase his services in July 2015.

But in the second leg, the youth team won 4–0 and advanced to the next round. One of the goals in the 66th minute was scored by Ghazaryan, opening his account for the youth team goals.<ref>{{cite web|script-title=hy:Նոր ռեկորդակիրը Գևորգ Ղազարյանն է |url=http://www.armsport.am/am/news/2/29/11916/ |publisher=armsport.am |accessdate=9 March 2013 |language=Armenian |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20101114195215/http://www.armsport.am:80/am/news/2/29/11916 |archivedate=14 November 2010 |df=dmy }}</ref>
