Bologna has expressed interest in signing Inter Milan talented Nigerian midfielder Ebenezer Akinsanmiro, currently gaining valuable experience on loan at Sampdoria.
According to Soccernet.ng, Inter has no plans to cut the Nigerian midfielder’s loan spell short, but Bologna may make a move for him in the summer transfer window.
Akinsanmiro’s Impressive Season at Sampdoria
The 20-year-old Nigerian joined Sampdoria on loan last summer to gain regular senior football experience.
This move followed his success in Inter’s Primavera squad, where he impressed enough to earn a matchday squad appearance and a cameo in Serie A against Lecce.
So far, the loan spell has been fruitful. Despite Sampdoria’s inconsistent Serie B campaign and multiple coaching changes, Akinsanmiro has been a standout performer.
He has made 20 league appearances, scoring once, and featured three times in the Coppa Italia, including a memorable win against Genoa in the round of sixteen.
Akinsanmiro’s performances have caught the attention of Bologna, who see the Nigerian as a valuable addition to their midfield in the future.
Inter’s Stance on Akinsanmiro’s Development
Inter remains committed to Akinsanmiro’s development and is keen for him to finish the season with Sampdoria.
The Serie A giants believe his steady progress in Serie B will better prepare him for future challenges.
While Bologna is interested in securing his services, they are unlikely to push for a transfer during the January window. Instead, a summer move appears more feasible.
Looking Ahead
Akinsanmiro’s growth and consistency at Sampdoria could pave the way for a significant career move.
If Bologna follows through on their interest, it could be an exciting next step for the young Nigerian
