New Inter Milan midfielder Petar Sucic has hit the ground running from the very beginning of his career in Serie A.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 21-year-old has impressed with his composure, vision, and versatility.
Despite having Piotr Zielinski and Davide Frattesi at his disposal, Cristian Chivu fielded Sucic from the first minute against Torino.
Indeed, the Croatian star lined up alongside Nicolo Barella and Henrikh Mkhitaryan at the heart of Inter’s midfield.
Furthermore, he exceeded expectations on his debut.
Petar Sucic looks determined to establish himself as a permanent starter at San Siro right from the start.
He seized the opportunity opened up by Hakan Calhanoglu’s absence to prove his worth to Chivu.
As a result, it’s hard to imagine the 44-year-old removing him from the starting line-up against Udinese this weekend.
Though Calhanoglu will return from suspension, Sucic will likely retain his place in the engine room.
Meanwhile, Sucic’s rise to prominence could further derail Zielinski’s first-team prospects.
