AC Milan coach Leonardo has left his position with the Italian Serie A giants by mutual consent.The 40-year-old Brazilian signed a two-year contract with the Rossoneri at the start of the season.However, his future has been in doubt for several weeks following a poor run of results that saw the San Siro club drop tamely out of the Scudetto title race.Leonardo, who was a Milan hero as a player, told a news conference on Friday: "
We are here to announce that we are parting ways through mutual consent, in a calm and serene manner, just as it has always been in our relationship throughout the years."The Champions League aim, which I desired so much, has been achieved and this morning we have decided to make it official. The time to end this adventure has come."
