Club career[]

Youth career[]

Succar started as a goalkeeper in 2006 at Country Club Villa, in the Chorrillos District of his hometown Lima, Peru.[2] He then moved to changed position to left-back, and then a left midfielder, before joining Cantolao San Borja.[2][3] Aged 14, he moved to Academia Cantolao where he became a striker.[4] He didn't play much, and left football for one year.[2] Succar returned to play when he was 16 year old and scored 26 goals in his first season.[2]

Deportivo Municipal[]

In 2016, 17-year old Succar joined Deportivo Municipal, where he began playing for the clubs reserve team.[5]

At the age of 18, Succar was promoted to the first team squad.[2] He made his senior debut on 28 October 2017, in a Peruvian Primera División game against Universidad de San Martín, where his older brother Alexander was in the starting lineup for the opponents.[6] Matías Succar started on the bench, but replaced Rodrigo Cuba after 68 minutes, the same minute his brother was subbed off. The game was his first and last of season. The following season, Succar played six games.

Loan to Unión Comercio[]

In the search of more continuity, Succar was loaned out to Unión Comercio for the 2018 season. The deal was later extended until the summer 2019. He then returned to Municipal after 25 games and five goals for Comercio.

Return to Deportivo Municipal[]

After returning to Municipal, Succar found more continuity, scoring three important goals in 16 games, to help save Municipal from relegation.[7] From the 2020 season, he became a regular starter and scored five goals in his first 10 league games.

LASK and Juniors OÖ[]

On 12 January 2021, Succar moved to Austrian Football Bundesliga club LASK on a deal until June 2024.[8] He made his debut for their reserve team, Juniors OÖ, in the Second League, as a 78th-minute substitute against Horn.[9]

Teplice[]

On 7 September 2021, he joined Teplice in the Czech Republic on loan for the 2021–22 season.[10]

International career[]

Succar's paternal great grandparents immigrated to Peru from Lebanon by boat.[2] Thus, Succar is of Lebanese descent and is eligible to be selected for their national team.[11] He can also play for the United States due to his fathers nationality, and for Peru due to his citizenship.[12]

In September 2019, Matías and his older brother, Alexander, were contacted by the Lebanese Football Association to play the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification.[11] They both refused to play for Lebanon.[13] In June 2020, Succar revealed that he was going to fight for a place on the Peruvian national team.[13]

At the end of August 2020, Succar was on the list of those summoned to the training sessions of the Peru national team.[14] Previously, he was part of some training sessions for the and under-20 teams.[3][13]
