He scored 65 goals in 105 appearances in all competitions for the Dutch club, with whom he won the Eredivisie title and Dutch Cup.

The club added of the 28-year-old Italy international: "The club would like to thank Davide for the total commitment, professionalism and dedication that he's shown throughout his 18 years with the Rossoneri and wishes him all the best in his personal and professional life going forward."
