A winger by trade, De Paul joined Los Che in 2014 from hometown side Racing Club on a five-year term for €4.8 million, making 32 appearances for Valencia before a loan move back to Argentina.
De Paul's move to Italy's second-oldest club caps off a busy day for Udinese after I Zebrette unveiled two other new players, Seko Fofana from Manchester City and Hamdi Harbaoui from Lokeren.
