Lazio defender Mario Gila has emerged as a leading target for Inter Milan as the club begins planning its long-term defensive rebuild. The Spanish centre-back, who is currently under contract until 2027, is attracting strong interest from both Inter and Milan, according to Corriere della Sera.

Lazio signed Gila from Real Madrid for €6 million in 2022. However, the Biancocelesti’s financial constraints could force them to consider a sale, despite the potential tensions such a move might provoke within the club. It is important to note that only half of any profit from the transfer would remain with Lazio. Even so, the deal would still generate a significant financial gain for the club.

### Lazio Coach Sarri Opposed to Losing Gila to Inter Milan

The report emphasizes that Gila’s departure “would put the coach in conflict with the club.” Lazio’s Italian tactician views the Spaniard as a key piece of his defensive structure. Gila offers athleticism and ball-playing ability, crucial attributes in a system built on high pressing and controlled aggression.

Whether Lazio are willing to test Sarri’s patience and cash in on one of their most promising defenders may define one of the first notable transfer battles of 2026. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as this situation develops.
