Di Giacomo scored on his final Kilmarnock appearance

Airdrie United have signed up striker Paul Di Giacomo following the 25-year-old's release from Kilmarnock.

Di Giacomo had been at Rugby Park since 1998 and spent some of last season on loan at Partick Thistle.

"He is young but has that hunger and bags of experience at a high level and he will be a great asset to us," boss Kenny Black told the Diamonds' website.

"There were a few clubs interested and I am pleased that he has bought into what we are trying to build here."

Di Giacomo scored three goals in 11 appearances for Kilmarnock last season, while he bagged two during his eight-match loan spell at Firhill.
