Leonardo has no regrets swapping AC Milan for Inter Milan.
The Brazilian was dumped by Milan after falling out with president Silvio Berlusconi.
"I left Milan because of personal problems and misunderstandings, seeing as I started to feel left to one side by the club," Leo told UOL Esporte.
"I was free at that point to accept any proposal and I had an excellent rapport with Massimo Moratti. I accepted the challenge of coaching Inter, which for me was a grand experience.
"Anyone who decides to join your team's arch-rivals has to pay a price, which is perfectly normal criticism.
"My respect for Milan never mutated and neither has my affection for Inter."
