In January 2017, Janža moved abroad to join Czech side Viktoria Plzeň,[7] and was subsequently loaned out to Cypriot club Pafos.[8] In July 2018, he transferred to Croatian side Osijek.[9]

On 28 June 2019, he signed a two-year contract with Polish Ekstraklasa club Górnik Zabrze.[10] On 21 November 2021, he scored his first goal for the club in a 3–2 win over Legia Warszawa.[11] He became the club's captain ahead of the 2022–23 season. On 15 June 2024, Janža extended his contract with Górnik Zabrze until 2026.[12]
