Career

In 2001 he joined Italian side A.C. Milan from BATE Borisov, Belarus. During the half of the season he spent with the team he failed to establish himself in the first team, playing only two games.

For 2002/03 football season he was loaned to Portuguese side Sporting Lisbon. He played 30 games for them and scored 7 goals, including games in UEFA Cup and the domestic cup.

For the following, 2003/04 season he was again loaned, this time to the Italian Serie B side U.S. Avellino. Kutuzov established himself as one of the most important players of the side and a fan-favourite. He played 43 games, scoring 15 goals. Despite his efforts, the team was relegated to Serie C1.

After his successful season in Serie B, he was noticed by the Serie A side U.C. Sampdoria. The club bought half of the rights for the footballer from A.C. Milan in 2004 for €1.5 million and signed him until 2008. In the 2004/05 season he played in 32 games (14 times in starting line-up, totaling 1,604 minutes) and scored 4 goals.

On 20 June 2006, F.C. Parma bought the full rights on Kutuzov from Sampdoria (and in earlier Sampdoria bought Milan's half for €1 million). He signed a three-year contract with them. He was loaned to newly-promoted Serie B side Pisa on July 2007. He returned to Parma during the summer of 2008.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    In time your relatives will come to accept the idea that a career is as important to you as your family. Of course, in time the polar ice cap will melt.
    Barbara Dale (b. 1940)

    The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    What exacerbates the strain in the working class is the absence of money to pay for services they need, economic insecurity, poor daycare, and lack of dignity and boredom in each partner’s job. What exacerbates it in upper-middle class is the instability of paid help and the enormous demands of the career system in which both partners become willing believers. But the tug between traditional and egalitarian models of marriage runs from top to bottom of the class ladder.
    Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
