In January 2017, the league competitor US Sassuolo Calcio was awarded.

In the summer of 2017, Aquilani moved to UD Las Palmas , where he signed a two-year contract. After Las Palmas was relegated at the end of the 2017/18 season, the Aquilani contract was also terminated. On June 28, 2019, he announced the end of his career after being without a club for a season.
