Former captain of Sochi Nikita Shchitov commented on the defender’s transfer Albert Yarullina from Traktor to Ak Bars.
The 31-year-old hockey player signed a contract with the Kazan club until the end of the 2026/27 season.
— Yarullin is known for training Anvar Gatiyatulin; they worked at Traktor; They wanted to keep him at the Chelyabinsk club, but for some reason it didn’t work out. Yarullin returned to his original club, in his hometown. He is an experienced leader and defender. I think he will help Ak Bars,” Shchitov said, as quoted by RB Sport.
Yarullin is a student “Ak Barsa” with whom he won the Gagarin Cup in 2018. The defender spent the last three seasons at Traktor Chelyabinsk.
In total, Yarullin played 647 matches in the KHL, in which he scored 204 (52+152) points.
