Manuel Giandonato (born October 10, 1991) is an Italian footballer who currently plays for Serie A club Lecce, on loan from Juventus.

Club career

Giandonato began his youth career with Juventus in 2004, and was promoted to the Primavera (Under 20) squad in 2009. After 7 years in the club's youth system, Giandonato was called up to the senior squad for several first team matches during the 2009–2010 season, and made his first Serie A appearance on February 6, 2010, coming on as an 83rd minute substitute for club captain and icon Alessandro Del Piero. After making his first team debut, he helped the Primavera squad win their second consecutive Viareggio title. He made his first start for Juventus on December 19, 2010 against Chievo Verona. He was sent off in the 52nd minute of the match for a professional foul. In the Gary Neville testimonial game on May 24, 2011, Giandonato scored an exquisite curling free kick from the extreme left side of the field, going in off the far post.

In the summer 2011 he has been sent on loan to Lecce, in order to gain some first team experience. He made his debut with Lecce on 11 September 2011, playing as a starter in the home match lost 2–0 against Udinese.

International career

He has represented Italy at the international level since 2006, when he began to earn call-ups for the U-16 squad. He has also been capped for the U-17, U-18 and U-20 teams. On 17 November 2010 he made his debut for the Italy U-21 team in a friendly game against Turkey.
