On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 69th of 74 of the 74 full-backs in the Liga Profesional Argentina. At 33 Barrios is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.6 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2024/25 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
