AC Milan and Davide Calabria have received a fine from FIGC concerning the negotiations that led to the contract renewal of the Italian right-back.
“DAVIDE CALABRIA, AC MILAN footballer, in violation of article 4 paragraph 1 of the Sports Justice Code, in relation to art. 5.4 of the Agents Regulation in force until 4.12.2020, as well as art. 17, paragraphs 1 and 2, and 21, paragraph 18, of the FIGC Sport Agents Regulations currently in force, for having signed a representation mandate on 1.09.2020 in favor of Mr. Miguel Alfaro Garcia and allowing the latter to conduct negotiations for the renewal of the contract with AC Milan in the period September 2020-February 2021, without verifying that the same had filed the mandate with the Federal Commission for Sports Agents within twenty days and without verifying that the latter was duly registered in the National Register in the period 1.01.2021 / 22.03.2021 and that therefore it could not represent it."
Frederic Massara was also fined:
"FREDERIC MASSARA, Sporting Director of AC MILAN, in violation of article 4, paragraph 1, of the Sports Justice Code, in relation to art. 5.4 of the Agents Regulation in force until 4.12.2020, as well as art. 17, paragraphs 1 and 2, and 18, paragraph 3, of the FIGC Sport Agents Regulations currently in force, for having conducted negotiations in the period September 2020-February 2021 with Agent Miguel Alfaro Garcia, in relation to the contractual renewal of the player Mr. Davide Calabria, without verifying that Mr. Miguel Alfaro Garcia was authorized to represent the player.

Here's the justification for AC Milan club fine:
