The 18-year-old could make a dream debut in the Serie A against Victor Osimhen and Napoli just four months after he swapped Remo Stars and Ikenne for Inter Milan.

Nigerian youngster and former Remo Stars academy boy Ebenezer Akinsanmiro is set for a dream promotion to the Inter Milan senior team.

Akinsanmiro has been drafted to the senior team ahead of the crucial trip to Naples to face Victor Osimhen and his SSC Napoli teammates.

How Akinsanmiro joined Inter

Inter Milan beat off competition from a host of other European clubs to complete the signing of the 18-year-old from Remo Stars Academy, Beyond Limits.

It was a move that trended on social media as the youngster moved straight to the Inter youth team, the Primavera team that won the Under-19 Scudetto last season, but many of the young players who shone in that group advanced to the senior professional game this season, thus Inter has been looking to add knowledge to their junior system.

He was spotted at the Viareggio Academy Match in Italy in March 2022, when he shone against some of the country's top academy teams and ultimately finished second to Sassuolo.

Akinsanmiro played for Remo Stars' U-19 team, Beyond Limits FA in the Lagos-based non-league tournament, TCC, where they have dominated for the last three seasons.
