Hi fabio_abbiati ,
Update from PG team:
The date used in the model is the short date that's based on the OS settings, as it as an asterisk. Date time format with an asterisk will reflect the date and time settings of the Operating System. Export to workbook is performed on Power BI Data Service, and the Operating System of the machine hosting the service cannot be the same as the Operating System on Client machines. Therefore Date Time format with an asterisk may give unexpected result. To guarantee the correct format, please use a static format without asterisk
Also, you can try highlighting the cells with date values and right click -> format cells -> pick the format they want.Best Regards,

In Excel, right click on any cell having the date say B2 - Format cells - Custom - And see whether the date format is set to mm/dd/yyyy here. If you have any other entry there, just remove that. This should correct your problem.
