Throughout 2024, Barbi was frequently called up to the Argentina U20 team. He was the starting goalkeeper in their runner-up campaign at the Alcudia International U-20 Football Tournament.[4] In November, he was again selected by coach Javier Mascherano for a series of friendly matches.[5]
In 2025, the goalkeeper participated in the FIFA U-20 World Cup, where his standout performances helped lead his country to the final. Argentina ultimately lost 2–0 to Morocco. Despite the defeat, Barbi was named the best goalkeeper of the tournament.[1]
