Mariano Damián Barbosa (born 27 July 1984) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Villarreal CF as a goalkeeper.
Born in Lanús, Buenos Aires, Barbosa started his career with Club Atlético Banfield in 2002. In 2005, he was signed by Spanish club Villarreal CF for a fee of €2 million, alongside another player in his position, Sebastián Viera.
Barbosa served mainly as reserve at Villarreal, but filled in for Viera in several games, most notably in the semifinals of the 2005–06 UEFA Champions League against Arsenal: even though he did not let in any goals in the second leg, the English had won 1–0 in the first match for an eventual qualification.
In the summer of 2007, after the signing of Diego López, Barbosa was allowed to join fellow La Liga side Recreativo de Huelva. Barred by Italian Stefano Sorrentino, he appeared in no games during his sole campaign.
In 2008, Barbosa returned to his country and joined Estudiantes de La Plata, being loaned to fellow Argentine Primera División team Club Atlético River Plate in the following year. After an unsuccessful spell, he was sold to Club Atlas of Mexico on 7 July 2009.
