Starting against Osasuna Sucic (illness) is in the starting lineup to face Osasuna on Sunday.

Impact Sucic managed to bounce back earlier than expected despite dealing with COVID-19 in recent days. He had played two full games in a row prior to the issue, though it's unclear if he's healthy enough for that many minutes this time. He has scored once from 14 shots and 10 chances created across all competitions this season.

Out with COVID Sucic wasn't included in the squad for Thursday's Europa League match against Maccabi Tel Aviv after testing positive for COVID-19, Alvaro Vicente of El Diario Vasco reports.

Impact This means the midfielder, who had started in six of his seven league outings this season, will miss the team's next two matches at the earliest. Sociedad have decent depth to withstand his absence, but it's unclear when he'll be cleared to return to action.

Scores equalizer against Atleti Sucic scored a goal off two shots (one on target), created one chance and suffered two fouls during Sunday's 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid.

Impact Sucic was having a largely uninspiring performance despite his team dominance but then things changed for him in the 84th minute when he sent a spectacular one-timer into the top corner for the goal that sealed the 1-1 draw. This was the first goal since joining Sociedad for the midfielder, who's still figuring things out after so many seasons playing in Austria.

Creative force in midfield Sucic had four shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and four chances created in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat against Mallorca.

Impact Sucic was active in midfield and despite playing a box-to-box role, he was mostly dangerous in the final third and was the team's most significant playmaking threat. He lacked the end product, but he delivered solid value as a midfield threat.

Signs with Real Sociedad Sucic has completed a move from RB Salzburg to Real Sociedad, his new club announced Thursday.

Impact The central midfielder will add some much needed depth in the middle of the pitch, though his path for regular minutes is a bit complicated given the team's depth in that zone. Susic is coming off appearing in three matches (one start) for Croatia in the 2024 Euros while being a regular for RB Salzburg both in the Austrian Bundesliga and European competitions.
