Here is a solution :

In Layout page :

@Html.PageScripts()

In the Partial :

@using (Html.BeginScripts())
{
 
}

And The Helper Class for MVC.core

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Html;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;

namespace MyProjectNamespace
{
    public static class HtmlHelpers
    {
        private const string ScriptsKey = "DelayedScripts";

        public static IDisposable BeginScripts(this IHtmlHelper helper)
        {
            return new ScriptBlock(helper.ViewContext);
        }

        public static HtmlString PageScripts(this IHtmlHelper helper)
        {
            return new HtmlString(string.Join(Environment.NewLine, GetPageScriptsList(helper.ViewContext.HttpContext)));
        }

        private static List GetPageScriptsList(HttpContext httpContext)
        {
            var pageScripts = (List)httpContext.Items[ScriptsKey];
            if (pageScripts == null)
            {
                pageScripts = new List();
                httpContext.Items[ScriptsKey] = pageScripts;
            }
            return pageScripts;
        }

        private class ScriptBlock : IDisposable
        {
            private readonly TextWriter _originalWriter;
            private readonly StringWriter _scriptsWriter;

            private readonly ViewContext _viewContext;

            public ScriptBlock(ViewContext viewContext)
            {
                _viewContext = viewContext;
                _originalWriter = _viewContext.Writer;
                _viewContext.Writer = _scriptsWriter = new StringWriter();
            }

            public void Dispose()
            {
                _viewContext.Writer = _originalWriter;
                var pageScripts = GetPageScriptsList(_viewContext.HttpContext);
                pageScripts.Add(_scriptsWriter.ToString());
            }
        }
    }
}

Tip: import you class helper in _ViewImports.cshtml so you can use it in all views.
