I have previous status match from the Club Avolta programme , it expires in Feb 2026. I've done maybe half a dozen stays and will downgrade to Premium in March.
I've loved where Ive stayed so far but unfortunately most travel has been to USA and Radisson doesn't operate there. I have however now got Hilton Diamond Status until Feb 2027.

The question is that when my VIP concludes will it be possible to match using Hilton Diamond. If so is there a "challenge" and do you retain VIP while completing the challenge.
I would obviously start a completely new account with Radisson and not try to match until I know I'm going to be able to stay close to the start of the Match
