"Gila currently earns 'only' €1.6m gross and there are no negotiations over a renewal. His contract expires in 2027, and approaches to discuss an extension fizzled out in the summer. Igli Tare's Milan - the director who brought him to Italy - are keen on him, though Inter are ahead and even dream of snatching him on a free transfer."
"According to Il Messaggero, the numbers prove Gila's impact. Lazio have kept 14 clean sheets this season and he has been a part of all of them, despite having three different goalkeepers behind him in Provedel, Mandas and Motta."
"Gila is establishing himself as a modern centre-back too with his ability to switch play and the pass success rate he boasts, which is still at 91%. However, his time in the capital looks to be coming to an end."
Mario Gila has become a crucial defensive asset for Lazio, featuring in all 14 clean sheets the club has kept this season despite three different goalkeepers. The Spanish centre-back combines traditional defensive strength with modern technical abilities, maintaining a 91% pass success rate and effectively switching play. His contract expires in 2027 with no renewal discussions progressing. AC Milan, managed by director Igli Tare who originally brought Gila to Italy, actively pursue him, but Inter Milan hold a stronger position and could potentially sign him on a free transfer. Lazio will attempt one final retention effort before attempting to sell him abroad in June, with Leicester and Bournemouth among interested clubs.
