Mario Balotelli receives £8,600 fine

AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli has been handed an £8,600 fine for making a "vulgar gesture" towards Inter Milan supporters who had racially abused him during Sunday's Milan derby.

The 22-year-old committed the offence as he left the San Siro pitch following the 1-1 draw between the two rivals.

It was confirmed earlier today that Inter had also received a fine of £43,200 for the conduct of their fans towards Balotelli.

The former Manchester City centre-forward began his career with Inter.
