Davide is an American striker who initially signed a one-year deal with the club in August 2009.

Born and raised in South Africa, Davide's footballing experience includes two spells in America - one alongside Darren Huckerby for San Jose Earthquakes - and one in Italy.

He joined United on trial during the summer and made a big impression, scoring in behind-closed-doors games against Newcastle and Hull.

He followed that by scoring twice on his debut for the club's reserve side against Rotherham at Elland Road on September 8.

In a bid to assist his development, the player was loaned to Chesterfield in December 2009 and to Lincoln later in the season where he made a huge impression.

Davide scored nine goals in 14 appearances for the Imps and his reward came in the shape of Grayson opting extend his stay at Elland Road by a further year at least.
