Croatia Star On Cloud Nine After Inter Milan Move: “A Dream Come True, Dream Of Winning Champions League”

Petar Sucic, a 21-year-old Croatian international, has expressed that joining Inter Milan in the summer fulfilled a lifelong dream for him. The transfer involved Inter paying Dinamo Zagreb approximately €15 million to secure his services, marking a significant step in his career.

Despite his youth and immense potential, Sucic has quickly exceeded expectations at Inter. Under coach Cristian Chivu, he has been handed a prominent role in the team's system and has made seven appearances across the Champions League and Serie A, contributing two assists. His rapid integration into the squad has seen him surpass experienced players like Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Davide Frattesi in the midfield hierarchy.

On the international front, Sucic is emerging as the successor to Luka Modric for the Croatian national team, as the 40-year-old Modric approaches the end of his illustrious career. Interestingly, Modric also moved to Serie A this summer, signing with Inter's rivals, AC Milan, adding a layer of rivalry to their shared city.

In an interview, Sucic shared his admiration for Modric, noting the coincidence of both players ending up in the same city, albeit on opposing teams. He praised Modric's enduring career, highlighting how younger players like himself can still learn from him. Sucic emphasized Modric's dedication to playing for Croatia, his love for football, and his qualities as one of the best midfielders of all time, describing him as a complete player who anticipates plays, finds solutions, and prioritizes the team.
