On 30 August 2016, Minelli was signed by Serie C side Albinoleffe on a season-long loan deal.[2] Four days later, on 3 September, he made his league debut for AlbinoLeffe as a substitute replacing Ferdinando Mastroianni in the 86th minute of a 1–1 away draw against Calcio Padova and ten more days later, on 13 September, Minelli played his first entire match for the club, a 2–2 away draw against Forlì.[3][4] Minelli ended his season-long loan to AlbinoLeffe with 26 appearances, playing only 7 as a starter and including only 2 entire matches and playing 19 times as a substitute and remaining an unused substitute for 6 other matches.[5]

Loan to Trapani[edit]

On 20 July 2017, Minelli was loaned to Serie C club Trapani on a season-long loan deal.[2] Five weeks later, on 26 August, he made his Serie C debut for the club as a substitute replacing Manuel Marras in the 74th minute of a 1–0 home win over Siracusa and five more weeks later, on 30 September, he scored his first professional goal, as a substitute, in the 63rd minute of a 2–1 home win over Casertana.[6][7] On 21 January 2018, Minelli was sent-off, as a substitute, a red card in the 93rd minute of a 1–0 away defeat against Sicula Leonzio.[8] Minelli ended his season-long loan to Trapani with 17 appearances, including only 1 as a starter, and scoring 1 goal.[5]
