In the following season, while he mostly featured for the Under-19 squad, Cioffi also made his debut in Coppa Italia on 13 January 2022, as he took the place of Stanislav Lobotka in the injury time of the match against Fiorentina, as his side eventually suffered a 2-5 loss after extra time. [5]

On 9 July 2022, Cioffi was officially sent on a season-long loan to Serie C club Pontedera. [6]

On 22 July 2024, Cioffi joined Serie C club Rimini on a season-long loan. [7]
