Torriani began playing football with Città di Cologno, before joining the youth academy of AC Milan as an under-8 and worked his way up their youth categories.[2][3] In 2024 he started appearing as their reserve goalkeeper, and he was part of their preseason in the summer of 2024.[4] On 26 June 2024, he signed his first professional contract with AC Milan until 2027.[5] He made his senior and professional debut with AC Milan on 17 September 2024 as a substitute in a UEFA Champions League match against English club Liverpool, after the starting goalkeeper, Mike Maignan, left with an injury.[6] Although he did not keep a clean sheet in his playtime, conceding one goal from Dominik Szoboszlai, his debut performance was solid, with him having 3 saves and showing excellent ball control as part of AC Milan's build-up play.
