Not sure if you read the whole post. The events of the film coincide around the time of the fall of Granada. The film giving the year of 1492 is probably erroneous because the formal capitulation of Granada occurred on 1492, meaning Aguilar's story takes only the span of 2 days at most, hence why the novel has his events set earlier, in late 1491.

Ezio returns to Italy very late in 1492.

He stayed in Granada from the armistice all the way to Muḥammad XII's abdication ceremony (which is possibly the official capitulation of Granada on 1/2/1492), to guard both Muḥammad XII and Isabella from the Templars (who at this point threatened both their lives).

After that, he stayed in Spain until after August 3, 1492, the date Columbus set sail from Palos. For the weeks after, he was defending Raphael Sanchez and Luis de Santangel from the Templars and Inquisitors. He doesn't return to Italy until very late in 1492.
