In 1998, he joined [[FC Rostov|Rostselmash]], following impressive performance for Taganrog club during the previous year.

He became one of the most promising Russian strikers during the next years, and joined [[PFC CSKA Moscow|CSKA Moscow]] in 2002. With the ''army men'' Kirichenko managed to become the league top scorer in 2002 (along with his teammate [[Rolan Gusev]]), won the [[Russian Premier League]] twice, and got the Russian Cup.

In 2005, he left for [[FC Moscow]]. Playing for the new team, he repeated his success, becoming the top scorer again.
