Currently, the 29 year old is yet to represent a club in one of Europe's five major leagues, but with every transfer window that comes along, the forward's name is mentioned alongside astronomical transfer fees. Whether he will get the chance to prove his worth on the big stage remains to be seen, but currently Hulk will have to make do with being a big fish in the small (by name, not nature) pond that is Russia.
