The central defender has been very impressive over the last few seasons, and seeing as his contract at the Stadio Olimpico only runs to June 2027, a sale would have to be made this summer to avoid losing him as a free agent.
He turns 26 in August and the most persistent reports paired him with Milan, but there is also interest from Real Madrid, Juventus, Napoli and Inter.
Gila focus is only on Lazio for now
With the suggestions this week he had already agreed personal terms with the Rossoneri, Pianeta Milan contacted agent Alejandro Camano.
“Mario still has a year left on his contract with Lazio,” was his reply.
“I can say that, with all due respect for everyone’s work, none of what I’ve read is true. Milan are a very important club and I am really pleased that one of my players is linked with one of the most important clubs in the world.
“It makes me proud, but I must respect Lazio in this fundamental moment of the season. Lazio are going into a Coppa Italia Final against Inter, that is a trophy up for grabs.
“So I am not talking to Milan, with Juve, or with any other club. If someone wants Gila, then they have to talk to Lazio, who own his contract. I am only the player’s agent.”
It has been suggested that Gila would particularly favour Milan if it means getting to work with coach Max Allegri.
“Allegri is one of the best coaches in the world, we all know how good he is, but the most important figure right now is Maurizio Sarri, because he is his coach at Lazio,” added Camano.
“We consider Sarri one of the best in the world, because he is at Lazio.”
It is not just Milan and Juve who have been keeping a close eye on Gila, but also Real Madrid, Napoli and Inter, with a suggested price-tag of €25m.
“I repeat, I respect everyone here, but Gila is a Lazio player. Mario has a contract to 2027, the Coppa Italia Final is coming up, he is proud to play for Lazio and right now that is all we want to talk about.”
