The identification with Radoslabos Chlapenos (Radoslav Hlapen) is doubtful. Mihailo Dinić identified Radoslav with „Rado(a)sclavus filius de jupan Vratisclavo“, who is attested in the Ragusan archives under the year 1319. Some scholars supposed that he was the same person as „iupan Rodosclauo“, who appears in the charter of Vladislav, the son of the former Serbian King Dragutin, adressed to Ragusan authorities from the 25th October 1323. He is mentioned in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan in favour of the Monastery of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel near Prizren. Attested also in the ktitorial inscription and the wall painting in the Church of the Presentation of the Virgin in Kučevište. The wall paintings in Kučevište can be dated between 1331 and 1334. He held the position of župan. Apparently the son of Marena. He figures in the inscription of the founders of the Church of the Presentation of the Virgin in Kučevište. His portrait has been preserved only in fragments on the northern wall of the narthex in the same church. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš III Dečanski donated the village Klьčevišta (Kučevište) to Župan Radoslavь. Župan Radoslavь bestowed the village of Klьčevišta and its church of the Mother of God together with the hamlet Brodcь, vineyards, fruits, bought estates and all rights to the Monastery of the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel near Prizren. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the gift of Župan Radoslav in the chrysobull charter for the monastery (I ješte priloži carьstvo mi crьkvi carьstva mi Arhaggelu sь hotěnijemь ljubimago vlastelina carьstvu mi Radoslava župana, selo Klьčevišta, sь crьkoviju Svetyje Bogorodice, i sь zaselkomь Brod᾿cemь, s vinogrady, sь ōvoštijemь, i s kupljenicami, i sь vsěmi pravinami, kako piše u hrisovulě Klьčevišt᾿komь što jestь zapisalь roditelь carьstva mi gospodinь kral).

Mihailo Dinić supposed that he could be the same person as junak sevastokrator, who is attested in the record written in the Serbian language by the monk Jevsevije (Se pisahъ azь posledni vь inocehь i grešni Evьsevie, rodomь Srьbinь ōt plemena po ōtcu Nikoličina, po materi že Rastisala. Ōtcu ime Borša a materi Elena, vnukь junaka sevastokratora; vь junosti že bihь sluga cara turskogo Ilьdrimь Bajazita bežavь že ōt cara togo vь Svetoju Goru postrigohь se). This record is in the manuscript, which has been preserved in the collection of the Čudov Monastery (State Historical Museum in Moscow, Čudovskoe sobranie, Nr. 15, fol. 1r). It is a copy of a russian transcript of the work Dioptra by Philippos Monotropos, originally written at Constantinople after 1389. Nebojša Porčić proposes a hypothesis, that Junak de Manolo was a Greek and came from the Byzantine Empire. It is also most unlikely that he was identical with Junacь, who according to the Life of the Saint Serbian King Stefan Uroš III Dečanski written by Grigorij Camblak (Gregory Tsamblak), was harassing the monks at the Visoki Dečani Monastery after the death of Stefan Uroš IV Dušan. As Junac saw the Saint Stefan Uroš III Dečanski in a dream, he fell ill and died after seven weeks. Junak de Manolo is mentioned in the charter of Vladislav II, the son of the Serbian King Dragutin, for the comes (knez) and the Consilium Minor (malo veće) of the Ragusan republic from 25th October 1323. He appears as sevast in the charter. Vladislav II, the son of the Serbian King Dragutin, wrote to the goverment of the Ragusan republic, that the merchant Klime Držić and his brothers payed off their debts. Therefore Vladislav II allowed them again to freely trade their goods in his realm. Junak de Manolo was among the witnesses of the charter (E di ço son guarenti lo jupan Rodosclauo, lo jupan Voichna et lo protobistal Jurech, sevast Junac de Manolo, conte Mençe et Marino de Prodanello et Sime de Marcus et Nichola de Naugne).
