Club career

Early career

Mandragora is a native of the Naples quartiere of Scampìa. His father ran the local football school established by Paolo and Fabio Cannavaro. Mandragora was scouted by Serie A clubs while at Mariano Keller and joined the youth sector of Genoa at age fourteen.

He made his Serie A debut on 29 October 2014 against Juventus in a 1–0 home win. He played the first 69 minutes of the game, before being substituted by Juraj Kucka.

Juventus

On 19 January 2016, Juventus confirmed the signing of Mandragoraon a five-year contract for an initial fee of €6 million, potentially rising to €12 million based on performance.He spent the rest of the 2015–16 season on loan at Serie B side Pescara. In April 2016 he suffered a fractured metatarsal in his right foot which required surgery. His recovery was hindered due to complications and he was forced to undergo a second surgery that August.

Mandragora returned to Juventus for the 2016–17 season and was given the number 38 shirt. He made his Juventus debut on 23 April 2017, coming on as a substitute for Claudio Marchisio in the 86th minute of a 4–0 home win against his former club Genoa, in Serie A.

On 5 August 2017, Mandragora was loaned to fellow top-flight team Crotone for the season.
