Inter Milan are closely monitoring Ebenezer Akinsanmiro after his strong loan spell with Pisa, as the Nigerian midfielder continues to show steady growth away from San Siro.
Akinsanmiro has impressed this season in Serie A with Pisa, earning praise for his physical presence and maturity in midfield.
The 2004-born player had already caught attention last season at Sampdoria.
Indeed, where he stood out as one of the few positives in a difficult campaign that ended with survival only through the relegation play-offs.
Inter’s decision to send him out on loan has so far been vindicated, as per FCInterNews.
Akinsanmiro Grows Into Pisa Role As Inter Milan Monitor Closely
After an initial adaptation period, Pisa head coach Alberto Gilardino has placed increasing trust in Akinsanmiro, handing him responsibility in the centre of the pitch and backing his development.
The midfielder is currently away on international duty with Nigeria for the Africa Cup of Nations, a milestone he described with emotion.
“Honestly, I wasn’t expecting it,” Akinsanmiro admitted.
“The first time they contacted me was during the World Cup qualifiers, but I was injured and couldn’t respond. When this call arrived, I phoned someone close to me. I was really in tears, because for me it was a dream coming true.”
Inter continue to watch his progress carefully.
As part of the deal with Pisa, the Nerazzurri retain the right to block the Tuscan club’s €7m purchase option by paying just €1m, a clause that underlines their belief in the player’s potential.
Strong physically, well-timed in his challenges and mentally resilient, Akinsanmiro is building his profile step by step.
His growth remains gradual but consistent, and Inter see his current experience in a demanding environment as a key part of his long-term path.
