Pescara Born in
Avezzano, Abruzzo, Ciofani started his career at Serie B side
Pescara. In August 2006, he was loaned to
Serie C1 side
Celano along with
Alessio Spoltore. He made 29 league appearances for Celano and returned to Pescara on 1 July 2007. As Pescara were recently relegated to Serie C1 in June 2007, he only made two appearances. On 4 January 2008, he was loaned to
Gela of Serie C2. He scored seven goals in a half season.
Atletico Roma Ciofani was loaned to
Seconda Divisione (ex- Serie C2) side
Cisco Roma in August 2008 (renamed to Atletico Roma in 2010) with option to buy
half of the registration rights in June 2009, for €130,000. He scored 37 goals in two seasons and won the promotion playoffs with Cisco Roma in 2010. He was the team top-scorer of Cisco Roma and top-scorer of the 2nd
Divisione Group C in 2009–10 season. Which he was the joint-topscorer of the league along with
Alessandro Marotta of Group B. He scored two more goals in the playoffs, just one goal short behind
Alessandro Cesarini and
Giacomo Casoli (both three goals) and shared the play-offs second highest scorer with
Alessandro Cesca,
Francesco Corapi,
Antonio Montella and
Antonio Gaeta; thus he was the overall top-scorer of the 2nd
Divisione. In June 2010, Pescara also won promotion (but to Serie B) and both clubs failed to agree the price of the remained 50% registration rights, thus both clubs had to submit a bid in envelope to
Lega Pro to decide the ownership. On 30 June 2010, Lega Pro announced that Cisco Roma won the closed tender as the highest bidder for an additional €222,000. As part of the deal, Atletico Roma signed
Alessio Tombesi (for €50,000) and
Abel Gigli (for a peppercorn fee) in co-ownership deal,
Abdou Doumbia and
Gianluca Lapadula on loan. Ciofani also remained in Rome on loan for another season. He scored 16 goals in 2010–11 season as team-topscorer. On 24 June 2011, Parma bought the remain 50% registration rights for €100,000 On 2 August 2012, he signed for
A.C. Perugia Calcio. In summer 2012 he added one more year to his contract with Parma (to 2015), making Parma still eligible for a co-ownership contract with any club until 2013.
Frosinone On 30 June 2013, Ciofani signed for
Frosinone Calcio in
co-ownership deal, swapped with
Leandro Campagna. Both 50% registration rights of the players were tagged for €600,000. On 24 January 2014, Frosinone signed Ciofani outright. He scored his first goal in
Serie A for the club on 28 October 2015 in a 2–1 win over
Carpi.
Cremonese On 9 August 2019, Ciofani signed a multi-year contract with
Cremonese. On 28 February 2023, he scored a penalty in a 2–1 win over
