Ricardo Iribarren (born November 2, 1967 in Berisso) is an Argentine footballer who played for a number of teams in Argentina, Ecuador, United States and Chile.

Iribarren played in the Argentine Primera for Estudiantes and Belgrano de Córdoba.

In 1996 he played for Columbus Crew in Major League Soccer. He returned to Argentina in 1997 where he played for Almagro.

Iribarren played in Ecuador for LDU Quito in the late 1990s. He then returned to MLS with FC Dallas. Towards the end of his career he played in Chile with Iquique and back in the United States with Pittsburgh Riverhounds.

He currently coaches high school soccer at the American School Foundation in Mexico City. He has also coached various teams in the United States. An interesting fact is that he has only given one player the coveted number 10 jersey, his name was Mateo Serrano, but it is rumored that this year he will give it to Carlos Diaz, striker for the ASF Bears.
