Club career

Originally a forward from the Inter youth system, Mandelli played only one senior game with the Nerazzurri; after a season on loan at Lazio, he then spent the rest of his career with minor teams such as Sambenedettese, Messina, Reggiana, Monza, Foggia and Modena. He retired in 2003 after two seasons with Sassuolo.

Coaching career

After his retirement, Mandelli agreed to stay at Sassuolo as youth coach and head of the under-19 team. In 2011, he was appointed as temporary head coach on a caretaker basis, in place of sacked Angelo Gregucci, to guide the relegation-threatened club until the end of the season and keep it into Serie B. The attempt turned out to be successful, as Mandelli led Sassuolo in 15th place, and out of the relegation playoffs. He then returned to his previous duties by the end of the season and was replaced by new head coach Fulvio Pea.
