This season, the Argentine is on loan to Frosinone, where he has consistently been a member of the starting lineup. He was loaned out by Juventus in order to provide him playing experience and support his further growth, which is an objective that is being well met. If he keeps up his good form on loan, Juventus would be happy to have him around for a long time, but he might go if the appropriate offer comes along.
Tuttomercatoweb reports that Genoa has indicated interest in Barrenechea and is prepared to add him to their roster for the summer. As seen most recently with Radu Dragusin, Genoa is used to acquiring young players from Juventus and honing their abilities for lucrative sales. Albert Guðmundsson is attracting interest from Juventus, and after this season, the two teams may discuss a player-plus-cash trade.
