"Tottenham Hotspur are considering a January move for Mario Gila, with the Lazio centre-back emerging as a serious candidate to reinforce Thomas Frank's defense, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside. The 25-year-old has impressed during his time in the Serie A, making him an appealing profile for Premier League recruitment teams searching for reliability as much as upside."
"Tottenham are not alone. Crystal Palace, Brighton, and Everton have all kept close tabs on the Spaniard, and there was concrete interest in the summer, Brighton and Bournemouth are understood to have made contact with the player's camp as they scoped out centre-back options. The defender has been previously linked with Tottenham's Premier League rivals Chelsea. Any Spurs approach will therefore need to be both decisive and persuasive, with role clarity and pathway to minutes likely to matter as much as finance."
Tottenham Hotspur are considering a January move for Lazio centre-back Mario Gila to reinforce Thomas Frank's defence. The 25-year-old has made six Serie A appearances this season and impressed with his ball-playing ability and composure under pressure. Gila excels defending large spaces, stepping into midfield to break lines, and progressing play in possession. Crystal Palace, Brighton, Bournemouth and Everton have tracked his situation, with Chelsea previously linked. Lazio hold Gila until 2027 and value him at around 45–50 million, giving the club negotiating leverage. Spurs are likely to test the waters in January and must be decisive to succeed.
