Enrique Pieretto

Tighthead


Enrique Pieretto became the latest in a proud line of Argentinians to link up with Glasgow Warriors in 2020, agreeing to join the Scotstoun side from Exeter Chiefs.

Prior to linking up with the English outfit, the tight-head had enjoyed a successful spell with Super Rugby’s Jaguares in his native Argentina.

Pieretto feature 17 times for the franchise on their run to the 2019 Super Rugby final, with only New Zealand heavyweights Crusaders denying them an historic title.

Part of Argentina’s 2019 Rugby World Cup squad, Pieretto featured in the Pumas’ pool stage victory over USA in Kumagaya as part of a renowned scrummaging unit.

He was also selected for the world’s most famous invitational side in November 2019, representing the Barbarians against Fiji at Twickenham.

Nicknamed Kike, the prop has also represented his country at U19 and U20 level.

Pieretto made a winning return to Glasgow action in November 2023 by coming off the bench in a 31-23 victory away to the Ospreys, his first appearance for 19 months after recovering from an injury that ruled him out of the full 2022/23 campaign.
