Fiorentina striker Alberto Gilardino admits he has big regrets over moving to AC Milan.

"Milan? It was the worst time of my career," conceded Gilardino, who quit the Rossonero in the summer to be reunited with his former Parma coach, Cesare Prandelli, at Fiorentina.

"I still haven't made up with Carlo Ancelotti, but I do not resent him. He made his choices and I respect that.

"There is one simple difference between Fiorentina and Milan. Here, in Florence, I feel like I am home."
