Personal life
During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Suslov revealed his Ukrainian ancestry through his paternal side and his family got involved in humanitarian aid to affected Ukrainians.[2]
International career
Regarded as one of the finest players of his generation in Slovakia, Suslov has been regularly capped throughout all the categories of the national team. He made his debut for the senior team on 18 November 2020 in a Nations League game against Czech Republic. He substituted Albert Rusnák in the 62nd minute.[3] Despite numerous performances where he showed huge signs of promise and was close to getting his name on the scoresheet, it was in his 11th cap that he scored his first senior international goal in a Nations League game against Belarus in June 2022.[4]
