After retiring from cycling, Leali became the sports director for various teams, including an amateur cycling team he founded. In 2010 Leali was found to possess illicit drugs during the Girobio. The team, Lucchini-Unidelta, was therefore removed from the race.[2] In 2011, the Italian Olympic Committee banned Leali from sport for life in May 2011 and sentenced him to a 20,000 euro fine. In September 2015, he was also included on the World Anti-Doping Agency's list of sporting staff who have been banned for life.[3]
