Mario Gila went from AC Milan’s nemesis in the Stadio Olimpico defeat last month to giving them a helping hand versus Napoli.
As Calciomercato.com recall, Lazio secured a rather shock win at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona over Napoli, allowing Milan to jump back into second. Cancellieri and Basic decided the match, and the former then spoke to Lazio Style.
“We deserved it, we approached the game well and the goal came almost immediately. This made us feel more calm on the pitch, then with the second we killed the game. I know I can score many more goals or assists or help the team defensively like today,” the winger said.

The MVP of the match was Mario Gila, who gave another super performance at the Maradona, as Cancellieri acknowledged: “Gila is an animal, he deserves the MVP award because he played an important game after the injury. We’re happy to have him.”
Super Mario
The Spaniard will certainly be a key figure in the upcoming summer window with several clubs vying for him, both abroad and especially in Italy. However, the team closest to signing him are Milan, the source confirms.
The Rossoneri are one step away from a full agreement for the former Real Madrid defender. Negotiations are progressing quickly, and in fact, only a few formal steps remain, with the Spanish centre-back having already given his word to Milan.
The club and defender have already reached a verbal agreement regarding the contract terms (salary and duration) while further meetings will be held in the coming weeks to get the green light from Lazio, who are seeking a fee of around €25m.




The defence did perfectly ok against Verona.
Why change?
My man never ceases to entertain us muahahaha. You’re the best
Is it clubs that play in champion league next season its like verona ? Mann.. you always make me laugh 😅😅
For depth.
Depth? He would be the uncontested starter ffs. Lazio are silly if they allow him to go for 25 mil of which they’d only get 12.5 (plus I’m sure Premier league clubs would easily offer 30mil).
If I’m Lotito I would be thinking to rather lose him for free, he would add more than 12.5 mil worth of performances next season.
“If I’m Lotito” says the guy that isn’t Lotito and has no clue what it takes to own a club. Of course you would. I’d bring the 300M player if I was the owner of Milan. of course. 😀
If you play 3 in defence you can’t expect 4 players to cover this position in about 70 games?
Oh yes, Verona is the PERFECT club to compare how we’d do in the UCL next season with this defense!!! FFS, the stupidity on this guy is beyond the charts.
Odogu (loan out) -> Gila;
Estupinan -> Grimaldo/Zalewski;
RLC -> Bernardo Silva/Ruben Neves;
Fulkrug (don’t use buy-out) -> Retegui/Vlahovic;
if Tomori leaves -> Lucumi
if Nkunku leaves -> Zaniolo???
If Leao leaves -> Mbappe
A couple of months ago it would have been “Estupinan -> Fortini”. The guy spends too many hours on FM.
out of the players I named, do any are on the level that this team needs to be?
are we already targeting CB, wing-back, CM/CDM and ST?
are the players I mentioned have any better deals going on or are they even linked with better clubs?
except for big 5 in EPL, Real, Barca, PSG and Bayern; these 9 get the top of the crop, but any other players is well in our reach…
if you will have the capacity to answer any of these 3 questions, and tell me how is this unrealistic; you can look a little less clueless than you are right now…
yes, cause same he’s the level as the rest of the players I have mentioned… if you want to be sarcastic at least try a bit harder…
If Gimenez leaves -> Halland
Hold up bro.. relaxx..
Gila agent already confirmed that they are not yet discuss with any clubs in seri A..
I think leao + maybe Gimenez would leave this summer…
Gila will automatically become our best center back – awesome deal if it happens…
But apparently we don’t need him because Milan kept a clean sheet vs Verona. Thats a prove that Milan defense is great as it is and don’t need any signings
Haha – yeh let’s stay as we are even in CL with flaky defenders..
The question is, can he play in a back 4 with any or our current CB’s? Or do we have to import another one?
I think the plan is to get two CBs..
At some stage we’ll try 433 again im sure. Gila + KDW as our CB pairing?
It would also help if we had reliable FBs, im confident Bartesaghi will be quality in future but for now I understand the links to Udogie / Theo H / Grimaldo etc
In any case im pretty sure that we’ll cash in on someone like Pavlovic’ theres no way the board can resist a 40m+ bid from PL sides, even with UCL qualification looking likely.
KDW has shown he isn’t solid enough in a flat 4 against Udine.
Pay the guy what he deserves!
Pavlovic is a beast!
Milan needs to keep all CBs and add 2 more.
LUKA VUSKOVIC is young monster, if Tare really has Balkan link then get him b4 too late, Tootenhan don’t use him & they go to degradation
