Ebenezer Akinsanmiro faces uncertainty about his future after Pisa was officially relegated from Serie A following a 2-1 loss to Lecce on May 1, 2026.
Pisa held a mathematical chance of escaping relegation before the match but failed to secure a victory. The team now sits in last place with just two wins in 34 games and only 18 points.
Pisa’s defeat further extended the gap between them and Lecce to 14 points, with only three matches remaining in the season. Akinsanmiro, on loan from Inter Milan, was inches away from conceding an own goal during the match.
The loss against Lecce marked a critical moment for Pisa, as it was their last chance to avoid relegation. This season has been challenging for the team, which returned to Italy’s top flight but struggled throughout.
Key statistics:
- Pisa has earned only 18 points this season.
- The team has recorded just two wins out of 34 games played.
- The gap between Pisa and Lecce is currently at 14 points.
Akinsanmiro will now weigh his options in the summer transfer window. He must decide whether to remain with Pisa in Serie B or pursue opportunities elsewhere.
This relegation follows a significant event—the first Tuscan derby against Fiorentina in 35 years earlier this season. That match highlighted the historic rivalry but also underscored Pisa’s struggles this year.
