AC Milan have officially announced Mario Gila as their new signing, securing him from Lazio for €30m including bonuses. The 26-year-old defender has signed a contract that will keep him at the Rossoneri until 2031. Gila expressed his happiness and determination to repay the club's faith in him.

Gila shared his first words with Sky cameras after leaving Casa Milan, saying he's very happy to join and feels he has to repay the club. He expects to do many good things with the team and is excited to share the dressing room with coach Paulo Fonseca, although he specifically mentioned speaking with Amorim.

The new defender sent a heartfelt hello to the fans, urging them to support the team. With his impressive performances in Serie A, Gila is expected to bolster Milan's defense.

Gila's signing is seen as a significant move by Milan, who were keen to strengthen their central defense heading into the summer.
