Return to Pescara
On 31 August 2009, he returned to Pescara in a definitive deal, in a four-year contract for €600,000 transfer fee,[8] rejoining former Grosseto coach Antonello Cuccureddu.[9] Despite Sansovini was one of the starting forward with 26 starts, Sansovini only scored 4 times, only 1 more than his backup Francesco Zizzari and Mario Artistico (half-season). Another new signing Massimo Ganci scored 8 goals with lesser start and Samuele Olivi scored 4 goals as a defender. Both Sansovini and Ganci scored in the promotion playoffs of the third division and Pescara promoted.
Sansovini again found his shoes in 2010–11 Serie B with 11 goals. However Ganci and new signing Cristian Bucchi and Stefano Giacomelli all failed to score. Instead, winger Massimo Bonanni was the second goalscorer of the team with 5 goals only. Pescara finished in the mid-table (13th /22teams) with 16th goal scored and 9th least goal conceded.
Sansovini remained in the starting XI in 2011–12 Serie B. That season Zdeněk Zeman used 4–3–3 formation.[10][11][12] That season, Sansovini played 41 rounds with 16 goals, scoring his first ever hat-trick on 22 October 2011 in Pescara's 4-1 win against Ascoli. Pescara also signed Juventus wonder-kid Ciro Immobile and Napoli rising star Lorenzo Insigne. The team had the most powerful goal scoring ability with 90 goals; Immobile was the league topscored with 28 goals, while Insigne had 18 goals and Sansovini was the third of the team.
By the end of the season, Sansovini totalled 39 goals in a Pescara shirt, overtaking club legend Bruno Nobili as Pescara's top-scorer of all times.
