Giulio Donati (born 5 February 1990) is an Italian footballer who plays as a defender for Mainz 05.

Born in Pietrasanta, the Province of Lucca, Donati started his career at hometown club Lucchese. In July 2008, he was signed by Internazionale and played for its Primavera team (U-20 youth team).

At the start of 2009–10 season, Donati was called up to the first team for a number of friendlies. On 16 December 2009, he made his debut against Livorno at Coppa Italia. With both teams resting numbers of regular starters, the match ended in an 1–0 win. He subsequently also received call ups to the next two competitive matches (against Lazio and Chievo) and started a mid-season friendly.

On 25 June 2010, he was loaned to newly promoted Serie A team Lecce with option to sign him in co-ownership deal. He made 16 appearances for Lecce in a season in which the Salentini were relegated. He was also a regular for the Italian u20 and u21 sides during the season. Lecce did not take up the option to sign him on a co-ownership deal.

Donati spend the 2011–12 season on loan at Serie B side Calcio Padova. On 25 August, he made his Serie B debut with Padova in the away draw against Sampdoria. There he found regular first team football and made a total of 30 appearances.

The 2012–13 season was another in which Donati was sent on loan and once again to a Serie B side, this time U.S. Grosseto F.C.. He made 27 appearances for Grosseto and made two assists throughout the course of the season.
