Born in La Plata (Buenos Aires), Barclay started playing football with the youth teams of local side Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata.[1] The forward made his senior debut for Gimnasia in the 1998 Copa CONMEBOL,[2] and made his Primera División Argentina debut entering as a second half substitute against Club Atlético Lanús on 18 June 1999.[3][4] He went on a six-month loan to Club Atlético Tigre in 2000,[5] and left Gimnasia in 2001 after making only eight Primera División appearances for the club.[4]

Barclay scored 19 goals for newly promoted Chilean Primera División side Deportes Temuco in 2002, before signing for A-League club Toronto Lynx in 2003.[6] Barclay scored a goal in his debut for the Lynx, a 2–0 victory over the Pittsburgh Riverhounds on 3 May 2003.[7]

After his first stint with Toronto, Barclay joined Venezuelan second-tier club Deportivo Italchacao and Guatemalan club Deportivo Marquense.[8]
