Lazio defender Stefan Radu has captured a record at the club, recording the most appearanes by a biancocelesti player. He spoke about the historic mark, as well as his past and future, speaking in an interview for Lazio's official site. "I have always said that the record is a matter of pride for what I have done. I would have almost never imagined to play and reach such an important milestone. Captain's armband? When Mister decided to hand me the armband I decided to leave it for Lulic. He deserved it. I hae always said I don't feel as though I should be."
"As a youngster, arriving in a new country practically alone, I had the fortune to find teammates who helped me adapt very well and slowly I became a part of the family. Pandev and Kolarov taught me a lot. They were just starting too, and they brought me in quickly."
"I thought about quitting. My agent will say the same thing. We spoke and I told him that if there was a small hope if I could stay here. I didn't want to leave. The atmosphere here is unlike anything else. You must think about winning alone, the fans are tough. Now I am in the moment, and I want to play even though I didn't imagine it. I still have the desire, now I think only about playing."
