Hockey agent Shumi Babaev, representing the interests of the striker Nikita Chachkov said that Kazan “AK Bars” has long been interested in the 25-year-old hockey player, but the player could leave for another club.
Last season, 25-year-old Shashkov played 66 matches for Sibir, during which he scored 15 (5+10) points. His contract with the Novosibirsk club ended on April 30, the player has the status of a restricted free agent.
“Ak Bars have wanted Shashkov for a very long time, they have been working in this direction for many years, they want to get him. But this year, as I understand it, Kazan residents are waiting for someone else, so Shashkov did not come. But I am discussing with another team the exchange of Shashkov’s rights with Sibir, so we will see,” Babaev told .
