==2011–14 season==

In July 2011, Radaš completed a transfer to Albanian Superliga club Skënderbeu Korçë as a free agent.{{cite news|url=http://www.albaniasoccer.com/lajme/shqiperi/superliga/4994-levizjet-qendrojne-robles-dhe-radas-te-skenderbeu.html|title=Levizjet/ Qendrojne Robles dhe Radas te Skenderbeu|trans-title=Transfers/ Robles and Radas stays at Skënderbeu|publisher=Albania Soccer|language=Albanian|date=6 July 2011|accessdate=21 December 2017}} He then was included in coach Shpëtim Duro's team for the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round.{{cite news|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/history/clubs/64114--skenderbeu/|title=Skënderbeu squad|publisher=UEFA|access-date=21 December 2017}} He made his Skënderbeu debut as well as his first UEFA Champions League appearance on 13 July versus APOEL as the team slumped into a 0–2 home loss.{{cite news|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/01f3-0e78e90aaa25-961661f1f152-1000--second-half-strikes-give-apoel-the-upper-hand/|title=Second-half strikes give APOEL the upper hand|publisher=UEFA|author=Lysien Nurishmi|date=13 July 2011|access-date=21 December 2017}} Radaš also played in the returning leg one week later as Skënderbeu lost again 0–4 and was eliminated from the competition 0–6 on aggregate.{{cite news|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/025a-0ea66a86b703-9f32e4393c94-1000--apoel-hit-four-to-see-off-skenderbeu/|title=APOEL hit four to see off Skënderbeu|publisher=UEFA|author=John Leonidou|date=20 July 2011|access-date=21 December 2017}}

Later on 18 August, Radaš had the chance to win his first career silverware as Skënderbeu played versus Tirana at the 2011 Albanian Supercup but the lone goal of Bekim Balaj sealed the win for capital club, in a match which was infamously delayed for one hour due to clashes among fans.{{cite news|url=http://www.arkivalajmeve.com/Lufte-ne-Korce--Tirana-fiton-Superkupen.1047089272/|title=Luftë në Korçë, Tirana fiton Superkupën|trans-title=War at Korçë, Tirana wins the Supercup|publisher=Arkiva Shqiptare e Lajmeve|author=Fation Shehu|date=18 August 2011|accessdate=21 December 2017}}{{cite news|url=https://int.soccerway.com/matches/2011/08/18/albania/super-cup/ks-skenderbeu-korce/kf-tirana/1126866/|title=Skënderbeu Korçë vs. Tirana 0 – 1|publisher=Soccerway|date=18 August 2011|accessdate=18 August 2011}}
