Born in Livno in Bosnia and Herzegovina on 25 October 2003, Petar Sučić began playing football with NK Sport Prevent Bugojno, the amateur team of the biggest city in his region. In 2018, he played in Iskra Bugojno’s youth sector, remaining there until 2020, when he caught the eyes of Zrinjski Mostar, Bosnia-Herzegovina’s most successful side. In January 2022, he moved to Dinamo Zagreb, playing in the club’s second team: Dinamo then sent him on loan to Zrinjski Mostar, where he won the league and national Cup. He returned to Zagreb where he stayed for two seasons, winning the league, Croatian Cup and super cup in the 2023/24 season. In the season just gone, Sučić scored two goals in the Champions League against AS Monaco and Slovan Bratislava and make his debut with Croatia. In total, Petar made 31 appearances and scored seven goals last season, his best rate in his career so far.
A PASSIONE SINCE BIRTH
Sučić’s love for football was born a long time ago, since childhood. A love born at home, with family and friends, during endless days playing with a ball outside.
THE PITCHES OF KANDIJA
The first pitch that Petar played on was in Kandija, the village where he grew up. A small village with just 300 residents, where his family owned a farm and where he started to kick a ball.
