On the season, Barbieri graded 12 for current form (age-blind), on 2 clean sheets and 4.531 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 29 → 12). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2025/26.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 33 Barbieri is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2025/26 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Deportivo Riestra finished 15th of 15 · a relegation-threatened side
4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 9 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (15th of 15) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 22.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 33, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 11.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.53 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
