In 2005, his football career took him to Russia's Tomsk "Tomʹ" team. He did not stay there long, returning to Lithuania in 2007 to defend the honor of Vilnius' "Vėtra".
After a year spent in Lithuania, Skerla spread his wings to the Polish team Korona Kielce, where he also spent only one season. In 2008, the footballer moved to another Polish club - Jagiellonia Białystok. In this team, the experienced player played until 2011 and during this time scored 6 goals.
