Report – AC Milan & Inter Milan Set To Battle It Out For Lazio Defender Despite High Price Tag | OneFootball

Lazio defender Mario Gila could reportedly be the subject of the transfer tug-of-war between AC Milan and Inter Milan in the summer.

According to Il Tempo via FCInterNews, the San Siro rivals are both keen to sign the 25-year-old at the end of the season.

Heavily linked with a summer exit, Mario Gila may be approaching the end of his time at the Stadio Olimpico.

Indeed, the Spaniard’s contract runs until 2027, with Lazio unable to convince him to pledge his long-term future to the club.

Meanwhile, Inter and Milan are keeping close tabs on Gila’s situation in the capital.

Despite Gila’s reluctance to sign a new deal, Lazio have no intention of allowing him to leave on favorable terms.

Indeed, Claudio Lotito is likely to demand north of €20 million to sanction the former Real Madrid defender’s departure.

Gila has been indispensable for Maurizio Sarri this season, making 27 starts in 30 Serie A games.

Therefore, it’s unsurprising that Lazio won’t let him go without a fight.

On the other hand, Inter and Milan are both in the market for defensive reinforcements.
