After leaving Neftchi Baku in the summer of 2010, he joined Club Guaraní of the Paraguayan Primera División in July 2010.
In July 2011, after one season back at Wanderers, Guglielmone was released.[4] Five months late, on 21 December 2011, Guglielmone joined Brazilian side Pelotas.[5] On 31 March 2012, Guglielmone received a red card for shoving teammate Douglas Silva twice in the face in a Campeonato Gaúcho match against Caxias.[6] After leaving Pelotas, Guglielmone signed with Beijing BIT in the Chinese Jia League.[7]
