Career

In mid-2002, he was signed by Cagliari of Serie B. He quickly became a regular starter and contributed to the team's promotion to Serie A in summer 2004.

Daniele Galloppa, owned by both Roma & Siena, also became an exclusively Siena player as a part of the deal. He signed a 3-year deal and he was valued €2.8 million.
After disappointing performances, Loria was loaned to Torino which recently sold Cesare Natali on 6 July 2009. During 2010–11 Serie A Loria spent most of his time on the bench or even the stands until the classic match against Inter.
