The Nigeria international player had fallen out of favour at Kazan, as he was not guaranteed regular playing time, following several setbacks by injury and resultant loss of form.
He was also recently ordered to train with the club's reserve team following a clash with a team-mate.
However, Martins has now signed a two-year contract with Spanish club Levante, who see him as an ideal replacement to Arouna Kone, who they lost to Wigan during the immediate past summer transfer window.
Martins contract at Rubin Kazan was supposed to expire next year, but both parties decided to decided to negotiate a mutual termination.
According the reports in the Spanish media, the former Inter Milan forward had to take a massive pay cut to complete the move to Levante.
Martins is expected to earn about €600,000 annually at the Apanish club, a short fall from the €2.2 million he was reported to earn at Rubin Kazan.

The 23-year-old, who watched from the bench as the Super Eagles drew 2:2 with Liberia in a 2013 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier last weekend, drew first blood for Dynamo in the 34th minute. Former Spurs midfielder Niko Kranjcar then scored twice to make it 3:0 before the visitors got a consolation strike.
The goal was Ideye's eighth in nine appearances this season and keeps him second in the league's scoring charts.
He also helped his club reach the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, scoring three goals in four games.

HAVE YOU STOPPED THINKING RIGHT OR WHAT? Accepting 12 500 euro per week, that's madness my friend! Have you been thinking about retirement? Who is your agent and where is your wife?
This team took advantage of you, you need to teach them a lesson my friend. Good luck anyway Martin!
As for NFF the lack lack of prefessionalism is the result coaching merigoround on the national team. Either they chosen the wrong coach or awarded the wrong contract. It is unconscienable for a country rich in football tradition not to qualify for international tournament and yet those tasked to make it happen are holding on to their jobs. They only fire coaches. If it is only one coach they could be escused but we have litany of failed coaches and yet these people at NFF are still at their jobs collecting fat salary and producing mediocre result.
