Things have moved very quickly between AC Milan and Mario Gila, as the defender is now ‘one step away’ from joining the club.
In recent months, Milan have taken a pretty big fancy in Gila, which has been no secret. Indeed, the relationship with Igli Tare increased the likelihood of a move. However, his continued good performances in Serie A have only increased the chances of a move.

Unfortunately, that has also alerted other teams to his situation and the main competition has come from Napoli, especially with Massimiliano Allegri at the helm.
Milan take the lead
According to Alfredo Pedulla, the list of interested teams should also include Atalanta, especially with La Dea having a bid of €22 million (with another €3m in add-ons) accepted by Lazio today. However, the defender himself has rejected any advancement made by the club, as MilanNews relays.
It comes after the defender accepted an offer from the Rossoneri last night. So now the clubs must agree on a fee and it seems that a deal is close.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the Diavolo are now a step away from making the signing, which presumably means that negotiations are proceeding in the right direction. A bid of around €25m will be required and it could certainly be finalised soon.
A five year deal is on the table, worth €5m per season and they are expecting to wrap up a deal by Wednesday next week!
Good now another central defender and new contract for Rafa Rafael Leao and we can start selling junk starting with Estupinan
New contract for Leao!?!?! 🤣🤣🤣
He is the first player that should be sold.
Hopefully last night’s game fooled some sucker teams into offering money for him.
And even he had better matches than Jashari and Ricci and scored more than Gimenez…you are right, lots of junk to sell.
but i thought no one would want to join Milan anymore?!
OUT: RLC, Tomori, Estupinan (might work as 5th choice so Barte can sometimes cover Pavlovic), Leao, Odogu (loan)
IN: Gila, Goncalo Ramos, Inacio, Zalewski, Brahim Diaz/Trincao, Alajbegovic, Modric (extend)
Promote: Camarda, Cisse/Zeroli
Revolt is this you???
This isn’t football manager.
Though very true comment, it’s just so cliche!!
So what?
The right kind of profile. Let’s get it done.
Great signing if true.
It would be interesting to see if Amorim plays him on the right or in the middle of the defense. Very good passer from the back
Let me guess, that step is agreeing a fee with a reluctant seller
They are a willing seller since he only has 12 months left on his contract, they just want to get as much money as possible
They should try getting Antonee Robinson there was interest in him few seasons ago, he’s pretty good.
