About the player
Emiliano Rigoni came through the Belgrano academy and made his first-team debut in 2013, the start of a career that has taken him across Europe, Brazil and Major League Soccer before returning to where it began. His first spell at the Córdoba club ran to 2016, when a €1.55m move to Independiente turned into two productive seasons — 46 appearances and 15 goals.
That form earned him a €9m switch to Zenit in August 2017. He scored a hat-trick against Rosenborg in the Europa League on 19 October 2017. He won three Russian championships with Zenit, along with a domestic cup and a Super Cup, though loan spells to Atalanta, Sampdoria and Elche broke up his time in St Petersburg.
The move to Sao Paulo in 2021 opened a new chapter in South America, and from there he crossed to MLS with Austin, where the club exercised the option to buy out his contract after two seasons. A brief stint at Mexico's Leon followed in January 2025, before a loan back to Sao Paulo later that year. Rigoni returned to Belgrano in 2026.
At international level, he was capped twice by Argentina, debuting in October 2017 in a World Cup qualifier against Peru.
