Club career

Born in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Barreiro was a Valencia CF youth graduate. He made his debut as a senior with the reserves in the 2004–05 season, in Tercera División.

After prolific lower league spells at CD Lalín and Algeciras CF, Barreiro joined Cádiz CF on 31 January 2008.[1] Initially assigned to the B-side, he made his first-team debut on 20 April 2008, coming on as a late substitute for Natalio in a 1–0 away win against CD Numancia for the Segunda División championship.[2]

Barreiro scored his first professional goal on 18 May 2008, but in a 2–5 loss at RC Celta de Vigo.[3] After the club's relegation to Segunda División B, he was definitely promoted to the main squad.[4]

Released by Cádiz in the summer of 2009, Barreiro subsequently represented Jerez Industrial CF,[5] Zamora CF,[6] CCD Cerceda, Pontevedra CF[7] and Racing de Ferrol.[8] With the latter, he scored a career-best 21 goals in two consecutive seasons, as his team achieved promotion to the third level and missed out another in the play-offs.[9]

On 27 June 2014, Barreiro returned to division two after six years, signing for Deportivo Alavés.[10] He scored 11 goals for the Basques during his debut campaign, including braces against CA Osasuna and CD Lugo,[11] and added a further five in the following as they returned to La Liga after ten years.[12]

On 22 December 2016, after making no league appearances during the first half of the season, Barreiro terminated his contract[13] and joined second tier club Gimnàstic de Tarragona just hours later.[14] He was sent off for two bookable offenses on his debut – a 1–1 home draw to CD Tenerife – the latter for not wearing the obligatory shinpads.[15]

On 28 January 2019, Barreiro signed a three-and-a-half-year deal with Lugo.[16]
