Russian star Radulov to decide on NHL future by March 15 – agent

Yury Nikolaev, the agent of Salavat Yulaev forward Alexander Radulov, claims his client will make a decision on his future next week, on March 15.

«This question has to be decided together with the Ufa club. Nothing could happen without a mutual agreement. All I can say is that I will have something to tell you on March 15. We’ll see how his knee problems go,» the agent stated in an interview to Sovetsky sport.

«We need to weigh up all the choices, I can’t just tell him: «Alex, go back to the NHL!» Don’t underestimate Radulov, he is a decent guy and he isn’t going to bang the doors if he goes. It’s a political decision, in a way, since he is the KHL’s biggest star,» he added.

Radulov still has a year remaining on his contract with NHL side Nashville Predators.
