HJK Helsinki
After starting his footballing career at his local FC Futura, the nine-year-old defender moved to HJK in 1999. After coming through the junior levels and the reserves, Sumusalo made his first division debut on 25 May 2009 against FC Lahti. Since then he made a total of 25 league appearances and some appearances in both Champions League qualifiers and Europa League qualifiers for HJK.
RB Leipzig
In January 2014, after the expiration of his contract with HJK, Sumusalo moved to Germany and joined 3. Liga side RB Leipzig signing until 2016. However, also due injuries, Sumusalo wasn't able to establish himself, earning only two caps until the end of the 2013−14 season. This situation lasted also for the first leg of the following campaign, especially since Leipzig had been promoted to the 2. Bundesliga and signed several high acclaimed players. To gain match practice, he was therefore loaned to 3. Liga club Hansa Rostock until the end of the 2014−15 season.
Rot-Weiß Erfurt
In June 2016 Sumusalo transferred from RB Leipzig to Rot-Weiß Erfurt.
International career
He made his debut for Finland U21 in 2009 and was a regular member ever since. He made his senior debut on 22 January 2012 in a friendly against Trinidad and Tobago. In January 2013 he scored his first goal for the national team on the 5th minute in a match against Thailand.
