Club career

Born in Palmares Paulista, São Paulo, Matheus agreed to a deal with Udinese in January 2014 from Ponte Preta's under-17 squad.[2] He was assigned to Granada CF, joining their reserve team in November but only being registered the following January due his short age.[3]

Matheus made his senior debut on 15 March 2015, playing the last 12 minutes in a 0–1 Segunda División B away loss against Arroyo CP. His first goal came on 4 October, as he scored the opener in a 1–1 home draw against Mérida AD.

On 27 April 2017, Matheus joined fellow third division side Lorca FC on loan for two months, as a replacement to injured Chumbi.[4] After achieving promotion, he moved to CF Fuenlabrada also in a temporary deal on 7 July.[5]

On 30 January 2018, Matheus left Fuenla and moved to Valencia CF Mestalla, still on loan.[6] On 22 August, now owned by Watford, he agreed to a one-year loan deal with fellow third division CD Mirandés,[7] achieving promotion at the end of the campaign.

On 22 July 2019, Matheus' loan was renewed for a further season.[8] He made his professional debut on 17 August, starting in a 2–2 away draw against Rayo Vallecano for the Segunda División championship.[9]
