Path of tibial nerve
Tibial nerve travels with the posterior tibial artery down the back of the leg. It passes posterior to the medial malleolus and divides into medial and lateral plantar nerves in the sole of the foot

Path of the deep peroneal nerve
Deep peroneal nerve supplies muscular innervation to the anterior compartment of the leg.It runs with the anterior tibial artery and ends with branches innervating the ankle joint andskin between the first and second digits.

Path of the superficial peroneal nerve
Superficial peroneal supplies innervation to the muscles of the lateral compartment of the leg. It then innervates the skin along the distal aspect of the anterior surface of the leg, dorsum of the foot and digits 3 to 5.
