Atletico Madrid are the latest club heavily linked with a potential \u20ac30m summer swoop for Lazio defender Mario Gila, after strong interest from Milan.<\/a><\/p>

The centre-back is only under contract with the Aquile until June 2027 and therefore is expected to move on at a big profit at the end of this season.<\/p>

He was purchased from Real Madrid in 2022 for \u20ac6m, having come up through their youth academy, although he is originally from Barcelona.<\/p>

According to Spanish newspaper Diario As<\/a>, Atletico Madrid have set their sights firmly on Gila as a reinforcement for their defence next term.<\/p>

They are aware of the competition from Milan, which is particularly strong considering their transfer strategy is now run by former Lazio director of sport Igli Tare.<\/p>

However, Atletico Madrid have greater financial capabilities and may well be prepared to pay up to \u20ac30m for the player, compared to the Rossoneri\u2019s \u20ac20m proposal.<\/p>

They are also cleaning out the ranks in defence, as Clement Lenglet and Jose Maria Gimenez are both tipped to move on in the summer.<\/p>

The Colchoneros do enjoy shopping in Italy, already picking up Matteo Ruggeri and Ademola Lookman from Atalanta, Nico Gonzalez from Juventus, and Giacomo Raspadori from Napoli, in recent months.<\/p>","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
