After that, he played for SønderjyskE in Denmark, NAC Breda, and Notts County in England.[3]
In early 2016, his contract with Notts County was terminated by mutual consent due to a lack of playing time.[4] In October 2016, Swerts joined RFC Seraing in the third-tier Belgian National Division 1.[5] In January 2018, Swerts moved to KFC Lille in the sixth-tier Eerste Provinciale Antwerpen.[6]
