Born in Rijeka, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, present day Croatia, Žigante's football career began in a small club called Šparta Zagreb in 1943.
Žigante then played with Radnički Beograd as they reached 3rd place in the 1955–56 Yugoslav First League season.
In 1966, Žigante returned to Željezničar where he was one of the creators of a great generation of players that won the Yugoslav First League in 1972 alongside Milan Ribar.
Žigante then managed Rijeka (1972–1973) and Čelik Zenica (1974–1975), with whom he won the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 1975.
