Kadir Barría


José Kadir Barría Rose is a Panamanian footballer who plays as a forward for Brazilian club Botafogo.

Club career

Born in Panama City, Barría played for local sides Chievo Academy Panamá, Parma Academy Panamá and Atlético Nacional before impressing the scouts of Botafogo during a tournament in September 2024. Due to being an under-18 foreign player, he was unable to sign a contract with the latter club, but agreed to a pre-contract and still moved to Rio de Janeiro, where he was only training with the side.
On 4 August 2025, Barría signed a contract with Fogão, being now a member of the under-20 team. He made his first team – and Série A – debut on 24 September, coming on as a late substitute for Artur in a 1–1 away draw against Grêmio; he became the second Panamanian to play in the Brazilian top tier, after Felipe Baloy.

International career

Barría made his senior international debut in a friendly against Bolivia on 18 January 2026. He scored his first international goal in the match, an eventual 1–1 draw.
