Career & Clubs

Club career

Succar played in the youth ranks of Academia Cantolao. In January 2014, he was signed by Sporting Cristal. During the 2015 Apertura phase, due to an excess of forwards in the squad, he was loaned to Cienciano, where he scored 3 goals. Succar then returned to Cristal, where he played the Clausura and the Playoffs phases, ultimately losing in the final against F.B.C. Melgar. He played the Apertura phase of the 2016 season with Cristal and was loaned to Universidad San Martín for the Clausura, where he kept a good performance under manager José del Solar. At the end of the season, Succar's loan was extended for another year with the objective of gaining more playing time. He scored a total of 21 goals during his time with San Martín. In January 2025, Succar joined Universidad César Vallejo in the Peruvian Segunda División. On 6 January 2026, Succar joined UTC. Two weeks later, on 20 January, Succar joined Nejmeh in the Lebanese Premier League as a deadline-day transfer.

Peru

Succar made his international debut for Peru on 6 June 2017, in a friendly game against Paraguay, winning 1–0.

Lebanon

In September 2019, Alexander and his brother Matías were contacted by the Lebanese Football Association to play for Lebanon in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification due to their Lebanese descent. However, they refused the call-up. On 7 September 2023, Succar acquired Lebanese citizenship in order to play for the Lebanon national team. Despite having been called up to play for Lebanon in a friendly against the United Arab Emirates on 17 October 2023, Succar's club Universitario de Deportes refused to release the player due to safety concerns regarding the Gaza war in the region.
