Career[]

Barbosa is a midfielder and lists Olympique Alès, Montpellier and Stade Rennais as his former clubs. On 30 July 2009 the Third division club Evian signed him from Metz on a free transfer.

In 2016, aged 40, Barbosa left Evian, but stated that he was still looking to play for at least another year.^[2] Barbosa then played two seasons with Annecy FC in the Championnat National 2 and one season with Olympique Alès in the Championnat National 3, before retiring. However, 44-year old Barbosa returned to the pitch in November 2019, signing with amateur club AS Saint-Privat to play together with his son, Antoine (born in 1999).^[3]^[4]

In February 2020, Barbosa was offered to become the manager of Avenir Sportif Roussonnais, better known as AS Rousson, which he accepted.^[5] Barbosa had known the club's sporting director, Mouss Guiza, for a while. He was still registered to play for AS Saint-Privat if the calendar allowed it.^[6]
