Inter Milan To Extend Contract Of Young Nigerian Star & Send Him Out On Loan To Pisa | OneFootball

Inter Milan are ready to extend the contract of midfielder Ebenezer Akinsanmiro and then send him on loan to Pisa.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, 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.

Inter Milan are now considering what comes next for Akinsanmiro.

The first order of business will be addressing the 20-year-old’s contract situation.

As things stand, Akinsanmiro’s deal with Inter runs out at the end of next June. Therefore, the Nerazzurri will look to secure the Nigerian’s future with a new deal.

Akinsanmiro could put pen to paper on a new deal until the end of June 2029.

Then, Inter will look to send Akinsanmiro out on another loan.

This time around, though, the 20-year-old could be ready for Serie A rather than another spell in the second division.

According to Tuttosport, Inter are ready to loan Akinsanmiro to newly-promoted Pisa.
