Club career
Barrientos was born in Comodoro Rivadavia, Argentina. He began his professional career in 2003 with San Lorenzo, after being officially promoted from youth team football to the club's first team. He rooted himself at the Argentine team, and his success earned him calls to the Argentine U20 and U21 football teams. He had played in 7 league goals, as well as scoring 6 goals for his country at the age of 21. Many transfer rumors have surfaced, and the player has been linked to a number of European clubs. Barrientos were sent to FC Moscow, a Russian football team, in July 2006.
Barrientos did not hold down a guaranteed starting position after his transfer to Russia, and he had played in the Russian Premier League for two seasons and scored 6 goals. Barrientos was sent on loan to San Lorenzo for the 2008-09 season. In 21 league appearances, he has scored 9 goals in 21 games. After returning to Moscow, he was linked to several clubs once more. Barrientos signed for Calcio Catania, a Sicilian club, in Serie A in May 2009.
Calcio Catania officially signed Barrientos from FC Moscow on a four-year deal before June 2013. He was plagued by sickness and was unable to make his Sicilian club debut until May 2010. Barrientos did not appear in any matches in the first half of the 2010–11 Serie A season after making two substitute appearances for Catania in the entire 2009–10 season. He was therefore loaned back to Estudiantes, Argentina, for six months. Barrientos returned to Catania in July 2011 and became a vital component of the team under new head coach Vincenzo Montella after a five-goal streak during which he scored five goals in seven league games. Barrientos was a key part of Rolando Maran's first team, scoring 5 goals in 27 league appearances from 2012-13. He was part of an all-Argentine assault team, alongside Gonzalo Bergessio, Alejandro Gómez, and Lucas Castro for the Sicilian club that has seen a ri rossazzurri fight for the European countries.
Barrientos was a member of a record-breaking Catania team that had earned 5 points from 38 games. The club also posted a record number of home victories in a single season, as well as a record number of points total in Serie A for the fifth straight season.
Barrientos would return to San Lorenzo, the team in which he made his debut as a professional player, in July 2014. It was his third time he had participated for El Ciclón.
Barrientos signed for Deportivo Toluca on July 29, 2016.
Barrientos announced his retirement from professional football in February 2020 after a brief association with Nacional.
In October 2020, however, he returned to his former youth team, Jorge Newbery de Comodoro Rivadavia, in Comodoro Rivadavia, Venezuela. Barrientos declared that he would completely stop playing football after a third degree sprain in January 2021. Pablo Barrientos, the club's vice president and brother, Leo Barrientos, confirmed that Pablo would be a member of the club's leadership a week later.
International career
Barrientos received a call-up to the Argentina squad against Chile on November 15, 2008 by Alfio Basile after scoring six goals for his country.
