In the 2025 season, after a promising start with several important goals, the forward had too many ups and downs and barely played at the end of the championship. In total, he played 31 matches and scored only seven times. In this way, he closed his chapter with 72 appearances and 30 goals, figures that reflect the affection and gratitude of 'The Puma' towards the Sabalero people.
Gigliotti and a long career
Coming from Lamadrid and with a great goal-scoring instinct, The Puma left his mark on Argentine football with his memorable spells at All Boys, Atlético Tucumán, San Lorenzo, Colón, Boca and Independiente. The forward ended his contract with the club and made the news public with an emotional message he shared on his social networks.
Emmanuel Gigliotti said goodbye to Colón after a 2025 that was difficult for both the club and him as a player. The forward returned to the Sabalero with the desire to lead them back to the top tier of Argentine football. In addition, he had the pleasure of playing internationally for clubs such as Novara of Italy, Chongqing Lifan of China, Toluca, León of Mexico, Nacional of Uruguay and La Calera of Chile.
Gigliotti and a long journey through Argentine football. Among so many sporting achievements, one of the most outstanding was winning the 2017 Copa Sudamericana, a title he achieved with Independiente under Ariel Holan. However, he put an end to his second cycle before achieving it.
' I decided to return, I had been feeling it for a long time. I was happy, I felt the people's affection again. I was also happy to see my children enter a completely full stadium and for them to enjoy it, I reconnected with people who love this club, and I also got to meet wonderful people from whom I take their friendship,' he commented.
Then, The Puma added: 'Although in sporting terms it has not been what I imagined, I tried, I gave everything I have, my mind is at peace. I wish you, dear Sabalero, that you return to where your story says and your great people deserve it. Thank you'.
