Candeias played regularly over the past two seasons, but with three wingers (Jordan Jones, Jake Hastie and Sheyi Ojo) joining the club this summer, he felt it time to move on in order to guarantee first-team football.

The Portuguese star took to Instagram to pay tribute to the supporters who had backed him over the previous 24 months.
