Club career

[edit]

Barcia was born in Vigo, Galicia, and joined RC Celta de Vigo's youth setup in 2010, aged nine,[2] from Club Colegio Hogar.[3] On 23 August 2019, after finishing his formation, he was loaned to Tercera División side Ourense CF for the season.[4]

Barcia made his senior debut on 1 September 2019, playing 31 minutes in a 2–0 away loss against Deportivo Fabril.[5] He was a regular starter during the campaign, appearing in 26 matches as his side missed out promotion in the play-offs.

On 31 August 2020, Barcia signed a three-year contract with Granada CF and was initially assigned to the reserves in Segunda División B.[6] He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 8 November, starting in a 2–0 away loss against Real Sociedad, as his side was heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.[7]

On 18 July 2022, Barcia returned to Celta and was assigned to the reserves in Primera Federación.[8] On 4 July 2023, he signed a two-year deal with Segunda División side CD Mirandés.[9]

On 11 July 2024, Barcia joined Polish Ekstraklasa club Legia Warsaw on a permanent deal, signing a three-year contract.[10]
