Revealed – The Reason Behind Inter Milan & Croatia Midfielder’s Dip In Form In 2026

Inter Milan midfielder Petar Sucic has blown hot and cold since the calendar year flipped to 2026 following a decent start to life at San Siro.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Croatian star suffered an injury at the beginning of February that went largely unnoticed.

Despite collecting 44 appearances across all competitions this season, Petar Sucic has failed to lock down a regular starting berth.

Indeed, the former Dinamo Zagreb ace has made only 16 Serie A stars, falling behind Hakan Calhanoglu, Piotr Zielinski, and Nicolo Barella in the pecking order.

However, Sucic demonstrated his quality when it mattered most, propelling the Nerazzurri into their 16th Coppa Italia final on Tuesday.

Why Inter Milan Star Petar Sucic Struggled in the Second Half of the Season

Cristian Chivu’s charges fought back from a two-goal disadvantage to beat Como in a thrilling semi-final victory at San Siro.

Meanwhile, Sucic came off the bench and turned the game on its head, providing two assists before scoring a late winner.

Indeed, the Croatian midfielder couldn’t have picked a better moment to showcase his class.

However, it’s worth noting that Sucic has played through pain over the last two months.

He suffered a fractured hand during Inter’s league win over Cremonese on February 1. Still, he has refused to let the injury affect his commitment.
