KuPS

Puri joined Veikkausliiga club KuPS on 27 March 2012 on a contract until the end of the season,[20] after a successful trial.[21] He made his debut after starting in a 1–0 away win over VPS in the 2012 Finnish League Cup group stage on 25 February.[2] His first goal came in a 5–1 away win over JJK on 11 June 2012.[2] Puri scored for KuPS in the UEFA Europa League qualifying 1–0 home win against Bursaspor.[22] He scored the winning goal against MYPA in the semi-final of the 2012 Finnish Cup on 30 August,[23] but received a straight red card in the final, which the team lost to Honka.[24]

St Mirren

On 15 March 2013, Puri signed a contract until the end of 2012–13 with Scottish Premier League club St Mirren,[28] despite the interest of divisional rivals Kilmarnock, but was not offered a contract following a trial.[29][30] He made his debut on 31 March 2013 as an 88th-minute substitute in a league match against Celtic.[2] Having made three appearances for the club,[2] Puri was released on 15 May 2013.[31]
