He travelled with the club to their pre-season tour of Austria and started up front in a pre-season friendly against FC Steaua București on the 22nd June 2013. He signed for the club not long after, and scored on his debut away to FK Jagodina in the UEFA Europa League.

On 16 July 2014, FC Dynamo Moscow announced signing Prudnikov on 1-year deal.[3]
