Milan’s initial offer for Lazio’s Mario Gila rejected

Milan’s initial offer for Lazio’s Mario Gila rejected Serie A side Milan have been working towards signing Lazio defender Mario Gila. A deal has been gathering pace but it might still take some time. Get Italian Football News have looked at how the deal has appeared close. Gianluca Di Marzio has now reported that the move may not be as close as it was first thought. Milan have made an initial offer for the centre-back through Gila’s agent Alejandro Camano. But this was rejected firmly by Lazio. The agent was in Rome today to meet Lazio but this didn’t lead to any decisive progress in the deal.
