On 30 January 2019, Ranocchia moved to Juventus, and re-joined Perugia on a two-year loan.[4] He made his Serie B debut for Perugia on 30 March 2019, in a game against Livorno as an 88th-minute substitute for Marcello Falzerano.[5]

On 2 September 2019, the loan was terminated early and Ranocchia joined Juventus' youth squad.[6] In 2019–20 Ranocchia played one game for Serie C side Juventus U23 – the reserve team of Juventus – on 25 January 2020, in a 3–2 defeat to Pro Patria.[7]

He became a permanent member of Juventus U23 in the 2020–21 season, scoring first senior career goal in a 2–1 away win against Giana Erminio on 3 October 2020.[8] Ranocchia played 31 games that season, scoring four goals.[9]

On 21 July 2022, newly-promoted Serie A side Monza signed Ranocchia on a one-year loan, with option to buy and counter option in favour of Juventus.[15] He made his Serie A debut for Monza on 14 August, as a starter in a 2–1 defeat to Torino.[16] On 22 October, Ranocchia scored his first Serie A goal, via a direct free kick in a 4–1 defeat away to AC Milan.[17]
