Miguel Ángel Barbieri (born 24 August 1993) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Chilean club Universidad de Concepción.[1]
Club career
[edit]Barbieri was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina to a Jewish family.[3] Argentinos Juniors were Barbieri's first team in his youth career, prior to joining Defensores de Belgrano's system.[4] He was promoted into the club's first-team during the 2011–12 Primera B Metropolitana, making three appearances as Defensores de Belgrano finished 18th.[5] In the following four seasons, Barbieri made seventy-five appearances with the final campaign, 2015, yielding five goals in forty-one games.[1] In January 2016, Argentine Primera División side Racing Club loaned Barbieri for eighteen months.[6][7][8] Two goals in thirteen games followed, which led to Racing signing him permanently in July 2017.[1][4][9]
On 15 July 2018, Barbieri joined Rosario Central on loan.[1] He remained until December 2019, making twenty-five appearances whilst with the club; also scoring one goal, versus Aldosivi in the Copa de la Superliga on 20 April 2019.[1] January 2020 saw Barbieri head abroad for the first time, as he agreed terms with Liga MX club Tijuana; amid interest of a renewal from Rosario.[10][11] He made his debut on 10 January in a win over Santos Laguna, having replaced Mauro Lainez with six minutes remaining.[1] In total, the centre-back appeared twenty-four times and netted one goal; on 10 March in the Copa MX against Toluca.[1]
Barbieri would later sign for Toluca, after putting pen to paper on a contract in December 2020; with it commencing in the succeeding January.[12]
In July 2026, Barbieri moved to Chile and signed with Universidad de Concepción from Deportivo Riestra.[13]
International career
[edit]Barbieri represented the Argentina U23s at the 2016 Sait Nagjee Trophy in India.[14] He featured in matches against 1860 Munich II and Shamrock Rovers (as captain) as Argentina were eliminated at the group stage.[14][15]
