Three Nigerian players, Ebenezer Akinsanmiro, Rafiu Durosinmi, and Gift Orban, have been relegated from Serie A after Pisa and Hellas Verona confirmed their demotion. Pisa's 2-1 home defeat to Lecce sealed their fate with three matches remaining, ending their top-flight stay after just one year. Verona's relegation ends a seven-season run in Serie A. All three Nigerians now face uncertain futures.

Key Points:
  • Pisa were newly promoted after a 34-year absence from the top flight.
  • Akinsanmiro and Durosinmi were part of Pisa's doomed campaign.
  • Orban was on loan at Verona from TSG Hoffenheim.
  • Akinsanmiro is on loan from Inter and is expected to return.
  • The relegations mark a painful end to the campaign for all three.

The Nigerian trio faces uncertain summers as they await decisions on their futures.
