Club career

Lokomotiv Moscow

A native of Moscow, Bilyaletdinov began his career in the Lokomotiv Moscow youth teams. After making his debut in 2004, he became a first team regular. In his first season the club won the Russian Premier League and was named the league's Young Player of the Year.[3] He was the Lokomotiv captain for the 2007 season.[4]

Everton

Bilyaletdinov signed a four-year contract with English club Everton in August 2009 for an undisclosed fee – believed to be £8.9 million[5][6] – upon recommendation from national team manager Guus Hiddink, who was at Chelsea at that time.[7] He made his debut for Everton coming on as an 89th-minute substitute in a 2–1 win over Wigan Athletic later in the month.[8] He created the first 3 goals with two assists in his first-ever start for Everton in the inaugural Europa League in a 4–0 win over AEK Athens. Bilyaletdinov scored seven goals in his first season in England, including one against Manchester United that was voted the club's goal of the season.[9]

International career

After Russia failed to qualify for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, he and several younger players were recalled to the U21 squad for the 2006 UEFA U21 championship playoffs against Denmark[10] but lost out to the Danes.

Bilyaletdinov played in ten out of twelve UEFA Euro 2008 qualifiers.[3] He scored the equalising goal against Israel, but the team lost in final minutes, 1–2. In the following match against Andorra, he assisted Dmitri Sychev in scoring the winning goal, resulting in the team qualifying for the tournament proper.[11] He was called up to Russia's squad for Euro 2008 and played in all of Russia's run to the tournament's semi-final.[3] For the FIFA 2010 World Cup qualification he was called up for six of the ten matches and scored twice in the play-off first leg against Slovenia, which Russia won 2–1.[12] His two goals were not enough as Russia lost the second leg 1–0 and Slovenia progressed to the World Cup on the away goals rule.
