Antonio,pic 2 shows the underneath of the cap.Gills are visible,but there seems to be no stem. Looks like the cap arises directly!!

Thanks as usual for your feedback! It was in a private property . I took the picture from far off! Very likely Lactarius sp.

Nice finding hema,it's look like a lactarius sp,but it would need a photo of a cut to see what species,congrats and thanks for sharing
