When Raksi was 36, he plucked up his courage together with another great football player of the banking team, Guţă Iancu, and defends the flag of the Division B
team, Metallurgistul Cugir.
A year later (in 1975) Raksi returns to Bucharest as coach of the IMGB Bucureşti, under the leadership of a great football professional Gheorghe Retezan who was football coach at that time. Between 1976 and 1978 and between 1980 and 1982, Raksi coaches Relonul Săvineşti

After the 1989 Revolution, Raksi stays in Bucharest and leads teams from stadiums such as Onoare, Voinţa and Granitul, so that in 1993-1994 he makes another stop in Viitorul Chirnogi, a team from Division C.
