Club career

Skënderbeu Korçë

2014–15 season

Radas started his fourth Skënderbeu Korçë season by playing in a two-legged match against BATE Borisov in the Champions League second qualifying round, scoring his team's only goal in the 1–1 draw at Skënderbeu Stadium in the second match,[2] but in an eventual exit due to away goal rule after the first match had finished in a goalless draw.[3]

He started the domestic season on 17 August 2014 by playing full-90 minutes 1–0 win against Flamurtari Vlorë for the Albanian Supercup, winning his first silverware of the season.[4] Six days later, Radas played in team's 1–0 win against Elbasani in the first week.[5]

On 13 December 2014, Radas received a straight red-card in Skënderbeu Korçë's 2–0 away defeat to Tirana for an altercation with Selemani Ndikumana.[6] He was later suspended for 6 matches for his behaviour by the Disciplinary Committee of AFA.[7] He was also suspended by his club.[8]

Radas returned on the field on 25 January of the following year in the 4–1 away to Elbasani.[9] He scored his first goal of the season in the 3–1 home win against Vllaznia Shkodër, scoring with an free-kick.[10] It was his first goal in over a year.[11]

Radas scored his second goal of the season on 13 April in Skënderbeu Korçë's 5–2 humbling of Partizani Tirana at Skënderbeu Stadium, bringing the team closer to the title.[12] The club finished the season by winning the league title for the fifth consecutive year, while Radas managed to play 40 matches in all competitions, including 33 in league.

2015–16 season

Radas played every single minute in Skënderbeu Korçë's historic run in Champions League's qualifying rounds, where the team managed to eliminate Crusaders[13] and Milsami Orhei, becoming the first Albanian team to reach the play-off round,[14] only to be eliminated by Dinamo Zagreb with the aggregate 6–2.[15]

Radas missed the team's opening league match of the season on 9 September against Vllaznia Shkodër due to an injury,[16] but returned three days later to play in the 2–0 away win to newly promoted side Tërbuni Pukë.[17]

On 7 February 2016, Radas was sent-off during the 3–1 home win against Kukësi,[18] receiving a second yellow-card in the last moments of the match.[19]

On 8 May 2016, in the last minutes of the league match against Teuta Durrës, which finished in a 1–1 away draw,[20] Radas suffered a knee-injury, plucked his ligament, and was stretchedoff the field.[21] Following the examinations, it was raported that Radas would miss the remaining two league matches of the season.[22] Skënderbeu Korçë, however, won its six consecutive league title and Radas won his fifth.[23]

2016–17 season

On 16 July 2016, Radas signed a new one-year extension to his contract, lengthening his Skënderbeu Korçë career to 6 seasons.[24]
