On 9 September 2020, Sharafeddine moved to Sevan in the Armenian First League.[1] Sharafeddine made his debut on 13 September,[2] in a 4–1 win over Ararat-2.[3] He played six league games and one Armenian Cup game in the first half of the season,[4] and returned back to Lebanon on 26 December due to the Nagorno-Karabakh war.[5]
On 8 February 2021, Sharafeddine joined Iraqi Premier League side Naft Al-Basra.[6] He made his debut on 14 February, but was subbed out for injury; the match ended in a 1–1 draw to Al-Naft.[7] Sharafeddine decided to end his contract on 16 May, and returned to Lebanon after having played five league games.[8]
Following his loan in Iraq, Shafareddine was loaned out to Safa for the 2021–22 Lebanese Premier League,[9] playing 14 league games. He then returned to Nejmeh from his loan in July 2022, and renewed his contract in August 2022.[10] Following Nejmeh's termination of Sharefeddine's contract after the first half of the 2022–23 Lebanese Premier League, the player returned to Safa in December 2022.[11] [12] On 31 May 2024, Sharafeddine renewed his contract with Safa for three years, until 2027.[13]
