Pisa Move: Nigeria’s Akinsamiro Nears Permanent Transfer After Impressive Loan Spell

Nigeria midfielder Ebenezer Akinsamiro is close to securing a permanent move to Serie B side Pisa SC following a promising loan spell from Serie A giants Inter Milan, TalkTalk Nigeria reports.

The 21-year-old joined Pisa on loan last summer and quickly became an important figure in their midfield despite the club’s difficult campaign, which ended with relegation to Serie B.

Reports indicate that Pisa have activated the €7.5 million purchase option included in Akinsamiro’s contract, although the club is still waiting for Inter Milan’s final response regarding their proposal.

Akinsamiro impressed with his energy, discipline and ability to contribute both defensively and in possession. He made 24 league appearances last season, providing one assist as he gained valuable experience in Italian football.

The potential transfer represents a major step in the young midfielder’s career, as a permanent move would give him stability and the opportunity to continue developing regularly at senior level.

For Inter, the decision will likely depend on their long-term plans for the Nigerian prospect, who remains one of the promising young talents to emerge from their system. For Pisa, securing his signature could be seen as an investment in a player they believe can play a key role in their push to return to Serie A.

Akinsamiro’s progress also adds to the growing list of Nigerian players making their mark in European football, with the midfielder now aiming to establish himself as a consistent name on the international scene.
