Born in Córdoba, Barrea was a winger and played his rugby for hometown club Córdoba Athletic.[1]

Barrea made his first Pumas appearances at the 2012 South American Rugby Championship, where he crossed for eight tries from three fixtures, including six in a single match against Brazil in Santiago.[2] He was subsequently selected by the Pumas for their two-Test home series against France. After being an unused substitute in the first match, Barrea came into the starting XV for the second Test, replacing Belisario Agulla.[3]
