Though not official yet, Radulov is said to be signing a two-year contract worth $1.5 million per year with Ak Bars Kazan of the KHL. The deal would make him the fourth highest paid player in the KHL.

Radulov has played 524 career NHL games, recording 144 goals and 224 assists for 368 total points. The thirty-five year old, 2004 first-round draft pick of the Nashville Predators, returned to Russia for the 2008 season and remained there before signing with the Montreal Canadiens in 2016. 

Since returning to the NHL in the 2016-17 season, Radulov posted 266 points in 370 games.
