Raddy Antic

Radomir Antic Date of Birth: Nov 22, 1948

Raddy will always go down in Kenilworth Road folklore for his magical goal at Maine Road on the final day of the 1982/1983 season which kept the Hatters in Division One.

David Pleat’s first foray into the foreign transfer market brought the Yugoslav international sweeper to Bedfordshire but as the Hatter’s manager rarely played with a sweeper Raddy’s cultured play, superb technical skills and powerful shot graced the Luton midfield instead.

After retiring from playing in 1984, Raddy arguably built up an even greater career as manager/coach of amongst others, Real Zaragoza, Celta Vigo, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Raddy sadly passed away in 2020.
