In August 2010, Hércules CF signed Pulhac on a season-long loan with an option to buy him permanently for a three-year deal. He returned to Dinamo after only one season. The Spanish club didn't trigger the buy-option.

In January 2013 Pulhac terminated his contract with Dinamo after receiving an offer from Azerbaijan Premier League side Gabala, for whom he went on to sign a two-year contract with.[3][4] Shortly after the appointment of Yuri Semin as manager of Gabala, Pulhac was deemed surplus to requirements and told he can leave the club on 8 July 2013.[5] In January 2014, Pulhac was still with Gabala and training with the youth team as he refused to leave the club.[6] Pulhac's contract with Gabala was finally terminated in August 2014.[7]

In December 2014, he signed a contract for 18 months with the Ekstraklasa side Zawisza Bydgoszcz.[8]
