Thanks Nico,

I already checked opencores before posting this. Despite there is an
Ethernet MAC controller project I wasn't able to find the full
schematic description on how to interface the FPGA I/Os to the LAN
Transformer.

The OpenCores Ethernet MAC connects to a "PHY" through the MII port.
The "PHY" (physical interface) is the one that connects to the magnetics
("LAN Transformer").

So you'll need an FPGA+PHY+Magnetics.
