Done Deal – Young Nigerian Star To Join Pisa On Loan From Inter Milan | OneFootball

Midfielder Ebenezer Akinsanmiro will join Pisa on loan from Inter Milan next season after the clubs agreed a deal.

This according to Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, via FCInterNews.

20-year-old midfielder Ebenezer Akinsanmiro spent last season on loan with Sampdoria.

The Nigerian joined the Ligurians on loan last summer. This is is first regular experience in senior football.

Akinsanmiro had previously impressed in Inter’s Under-19 or Primavera team. This had earned him some matchday squad appearances last season, and a cameo substitute appearance against Lecce.

Inter had beaten the likes of Real Madrid and Benfica to Akinsanmiro’s signature.

However, prior to this season the priority was to get Akinsanmiro regular playing time.

Therefore, Sampdoria emerged as the ideal destination for the 20-year-old to start finding his feet in the senior game.

After the positive steps at Sampdoria last season in Serie B, Akinsanmiro is ready for the top flight.

Therefore, the Nigerian has come onto the radar of Pisa.

The Tuscans have identified Akinsanmiro as a perfect target to bolster their squad upon their return to Serie A.

And according to Sky Sport Italia, Pisa have wrapped up an agreement with Inter.

Therefore, Akinsanmiro will join the newly-promoted side on loan this season. Pisa will have a purchase option, whilst Inter will retain a buyback clause.
