Gattuso questions motivation for Leonardo's decision
Table of Contents
AC Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso has questioned Leonardo's motivation for taking up the vacant coaching post at bitter rivals Inter Milan.
The 41-year-old Brazilian was presented as the coach of the Nerazzurri earlier on Wednesday, just months after he left city rivals Milan.
Leonardo has limited coaching experience, given that he only spent one season on the Rossoneri bench which was his first and only job until Inter called.
"We didn't really have a relationship, nothing, there simply was no feeling between us," Gattuso told Il Corriere della Sera.
"Considering the squad we had last season you have to say that Leonardo did a good job, but he also said that coaching wasn't for him.
"He didn't want to be a coach and said as much on a number of occasions. Evidently the God of money can produce miracles.
"I wish Leonardo well, but I also hope that he doesn't win anything with Inter."
