Club career

Barbarić came through the youth ranks of Dinamo Zagreb, before joining the senior squad during the Prva HNL winter break in 2008. He made 5 appearances, of which on three occasions he started in the first-eleven.

During the summer transfer window, he agreed to join Dinamo's affiliate Lokomotiva on a six–months loan. He featured in 13 out of 15 league matches and scored 1 goal before he returned to Dinamo in January 2009. By the end of the season he appeared 6 times in the league and 2 times in Croatian Cup. Barbarić established himself as a first–team regular at the start of the 2009–10 season, as the centre–back Robert Kovač missed all of the early season matches due to an injury.

After Sarajevo, he played for K.V. Kortrijk, NK Rudeš and FC Atyrau.

In February 2019, he came back to Bosnia and signed for HŠK Zrinjski Mostar on a deal lasting until 2021. Barbarić left Zrinjski in January 2021. He finished his career at Austrian lower league side SVH Waldbach in October 2021.[2]
