The Russian forward and the World champion-2008 Alexander Radulov has inked a three-year contract with Russia’s Slavat Yulaev.
This move could be a major sensation, since the 22-year-old NHL star has a running agreement with Nashville.
Despite this contract expires in a year, Alexander decided to swap more than successful career in NHL for a comeback to Russia.
"Salavat Yulaev has been trying to sign me for two years already", said Radulov to Sport Express. "The club general manager Oleg Gross has been keeping in touch with my agent, so I was aware they wanted to see me wear their uniform."
"Ufa team offered me a good contract and I decided to put my signature under the contract."
"I had a brilliant season in Nashville, so I don’t see any reasons to regret that I didn’t move to Ufa last summer."
"As for my choice I wanted to play in a strong club, which claim to hold the leading positions in the championship."
"Moreover they will perform in the Champions League, I heard about club’s powerful infrastructure, so it would be silly to reject their offer."
"I signed a three-year contract and I don’t think about my departure. My mind is occupied with thoughts about my career in Salavat Yulaev."
"First of all I wanted to play in my home country, and secondly the contract terms turned to be more attractive than in NHL."
"I told about that not once, and the NHL club made no attempts to keep me in the squad. It seems that they don't want me to stay or probably they didn't think i would quit the team."
"I will start pre-season preparations in Ufa next Wednesday."
