Decent loan spell in Alsace
DBrighton & Hove Albion
June 9, 2025
Barco played 14 Ligue 1 matches for Strasbourg in the 2024-25 season during his loan spell from Brighton, contributing two assists.
ANALYSIS
Barco showed maturity and tactical awareness at left-back or in the midfield when needed during his loan spell with Strasbourg, supporting the attack while maintaining defensive discipline. His overlapping runs and forward passing added a valuable dimension to Strasbourg's play after a first half of the season complicated with Sevilla on loan where he did not play much. The Argentinian is heading back to his parent club Brighton with good experience from his time with the Racing where he became a fan favorite and set new career highs in league play in every stat. He still has three years left on his contract with Brighton and it remains unclear if coach Fabian Hurzeler will want him in the squad or loan him again next season.

Could leave Sevilla
DSevilla
November 28, 2024
Sevilla are considering cutting Barco's loan spell short, according to Fabrizio Romano.
ANALYSIS
Barco has struggled to see regular minutes at Sevilla, and Brighton are considering loaning him elsewhere in January so he can get the minutes he needs to continue his development. Barco is an international with Argentina, but he could lose his place in the NT if he doesn't play regularly, which might be an issue with the 2026 FIFA World Cup on the horizon.
