Davide Succi (born October 11, 1981 in Bologna) is an Italian footballer, who plays for Padova, on loan from Palermo. His nickname is Il cigno o Pazzucci.

Career

Davide Succi started his professional career at Chievo. He was co-owned with A.C. Milan and later Genoa C.F.C.. He was on loan to various Serie C1 clubs and briefly for Calcio Como in Serie B. He played his only Serie A game, in an away match that Chievo lost 0–1 to Brescia, on 6 November 2004. He left on loan again to Lucchese of Serie C1 in January 2005. In June 2005, Chievo got full ownership of the player, but left on loan to Ravenna in summer 2005.

After winning promotion to Serie B, and Chievo relegated to Serie B, Ravenna bought Succi permanently.[1]

On September 1, 2008 he was signed by Palermo in a co-ownership deal, only a few days after having eliminated the rosanero from the Coppa Italia 2008-09 by scoring both goals in a surprising 2–1 away win for Ravenna.[2]

In his first full season in the Italian top flight, Succi scored a total four goals, several of them coming on the pitch during games. On November 23 he scored his first Serie A goal, a late equalizer in a 1–1 away tie against his hometown club Bologna;[3] this was followed by another equalizer, the second rosanero goal in an unexpected 2–2 draw at San Siro against league toppers Inter. Since then scored two more goals, again against Bologna, and then Cagliari.

On 26 January 2010 Bologna signed the striker on loan from Palermo until June 2010, with an option for the rossoblu to sign the player permanently.[4][5] On July 2010, Bologna announced they were not interested in buying Succi, and Palermo successively agreed for a season loan to Serie B club Padova later in August.[6]
