Club career

CSKA Moscow

[edit]

Kuchayev began his career with a football school in his hometown of Ryazan at the age of 8. Six years later, he joined Master-Saturn Yegoryevsk and moved to Moscow Oblast in 2012.[1] While playing there, Kuchayev was spotted by CSKA Moscow scout Andrey Movsisyan and joined for the club in 2015.[2]

Kuchayev made his senior debut with CSKA on 2 April 2017, in a 2–1 Russian Premier League win over Krylia Sovetov Samara.[1] Having established himself in the team the following season, on 27 September 2017, Kuchayev scored his first goal for the club, coming on as a substitute to score CSKA's only goal in a 1–4 loss to Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League group stage.[3]

On 6 May 2017, Kuchayev tore his cruciate ligament in his left knee during a 6–0 home win over Arsenal Tula, keeping him out for six months.[4] He missed the first half of 2018–19 season and returned to the team on 23 November as a substitute in a 2–0 away win against Akhmat Grozny.[5] Kuchayev also missed the remainder of that season due to a meniscus injury he picked up in February 2019.[6]

On 8 August 2020, Kuchayev scored his first goal in the Russian Premier League on the first day of the season in a 2–0 win over Khimki.[7] He also scored in the following match, helping CSKA to a 2–1 win against Tambov at VEB Arena.[8] Four goals in six appearances in August 2020 won Kuchayev the Russian Premier League Player of the Month award.[9]

Rubin Kazan loan

[edit]

On 26 January 2022, he joined Rubin Kazan on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season, with an option to purchase.[10] Before the loan was agreed upon, Kuchayev extended his contract with CSKA until the end of the 2023–24 season.[11] Rubin did not exercise the purchase option.[12]

On 2 November 2020, Kuchayev was named in Stanislav Cherchesov's Russia squad for the friendly match against Moldova and the UEFA Nations League fixtures against Turkey and Serbia.[18] On 12 November 2020, Kuchayev made his senior national team debut as a half-time substitute in a 0–0 draw against Moldova.[19]
