Brighton has been engaged in efforts to acquire Mario Gila for more than a month and is contemplating an official offer ranging between 30 and 35 million euros to Lazio's Claudio Lotito. The Spanish defender, who has emerged as one of Lazio's most sought-after players following his impressive performances over the past two seasons, is also drawing interest from Bournemouth. Both English clubs are eager to secure the signature of the former Real Madrid player, with Brighton currently leading the negotiations. Mario Gila, whose contract with Lazio runs until 2027 and includes a 50% sell-on clause benefiting Real Madrid, is reportedly open to considering high-profile offers as he aims to make a significant advancement in his career. Although he dreams of a return to Real Madrid, his immediate future appears more likely to be in the Premier League, with Brighton and Bournemouth as potential destinations.
