ABERDEEN Football Club have today (Thursday, 27 August) completed the signing of Italian defender Davide Grassi.
The 23 year old, who can play either as a left back or in central defence, has signed a one year deal after a successful trial period.
Grassi, who is a product of the Parma youth system, spoke to RedWeb shortly after penning his contract. He said: "I have enjoyed my time here on trial and I'm happy I impressed the manager enough to win a deal.
"I can't wait to play my first match in front of the home crowd and hopefully I will get my chance against Motherwell on Saturday," added the Italian.
Director of Football, Willie Miller, admitted the defender arrives at Pittodrie with a fantastic pedigree.
"We're delighted to have Davide on board for the season ahead," said Miller.
"He's a player who has come through the youth ranks at Parma so he has a good basis from which to develop as a player.
"He's a tall and powerful left sided defender and I know the manager has been impressed by what he's seen of him so far.
