Career

A product of Hajduk Split youth academy, Sunara was promoted to their first squad in July 1999 at the age of 20. He spent the following five years with the club, mostly being their second or third choice goalkeeper, which saw him earning a mere 10 appearances for the club. In 2004, he was transferred to Israeli side Hapoel Be'er Sheva, only to return to Croatia in July 2005. After stints with Croatian lower level sides Pomorac and Slavonac CO, he signed for NK Karlovac in July 2009, as one of the players brought in to reinforce the club for their first ever top flight season. After terminating his contract with Karlovac through arbitration in February 2012, he joined RNK Split. [1]

Sunara was considered a promising player when he was younger, and was capped seven times for Croatia's U-20 and U-21 selections between 1998 and 2001, and was part of the squad which competed at the 1999 FIFA World Youth Championship. [2]
