“I am very happy for the team, for the city, for the fans, for everything that has happened this year. I am very grateful. We have to enjoy the good times, we have an incredible group.

We managed to overcome the negative period we went through. To me, we are like a family, and that is our strength. We are looking forward to next season to achieve even more, because I know we can be better”, said Ionuț Radu, according to Marca.

The Romanian international also announced his intention to stay at Celta Vigo: “It's my house. I really like it here. I stay. I don't even have to think about it. Celta has given me a lot, and I want to give a lot back to the club“.
