Sundas invented and recommended to FIFA, an AI tool called Lucy Project – a technology that monitors and improves tennis player's technique, movement and body posture. The Lucy project functions by placing a camera by tennis court, records the movement of the player, replays the movement and observes it by comparing it to the well-known movement of leading tennis players in courts to determine the mistakes in the movement. In 2016, Sundas complained to FIFA to increase the number of non-European players that can be registered by a European club from three to 50 per cent of its players or ban non-EU players from playing in the EU clubs to end football discriminatory practice in the EU. He wrote an open letter to FIFA asking it to introduce “Rule of 1” aimed at improving backward passes during football matches which is slow and boring.

In 2019, Sundas became the manager of the Italian-Tunisian goalkeeper, Aladin Ayoub who was playing in Serie B championship with Virtus Entella. In 2016, Sundas got Mattia Vaccaro registered with Napoli, where he received technical, tactical and athletic training until 2018/2019 season, when Sundas again moved Vaccaro to Ascoli for two years contract and was later proposed to CT Mancini.
