Matheus Santos Soares (born 29 July 1998), known as Matheus Santos or Matheusinho, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Mirassol on loan from Goiás.
Club career
Born in São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, Matheusinho was an América Mineiro youth graduate, but made his senior debut while on loan to Guarani-MG in 2017. Upon returning to his parent club, he featured mainly with the under-20s before making his first team debut on 11 March 2018, starting in a 1–1 Campeonato Mineiro away draw against Villa Nova.[1]
On 16 March 2018, five days after his debut, Matheusinho renewed his contract with América until December 2020.[2] However, he did not appear for the side again, serving loan deals at Santo André, Rio Claro and Nacional de Muriaé.[3]
On 9 April 2021, Matheusinho signed for Sertãozinho.[4] He subsequently represented Série D side Patrocinense before joining Veranópolis on 2 September.[5]
On 14 December 2021, Matheusinho agreed to a deal with Ypiranga-RS in the Série C.[6] After being a regular starter as the side reached the 2022 Campeonato Gaúcho Finals, he moved to Série A side Goiás on 12 April 2022.[7]
Matheusinho made his debut for the Esmeraldino on 31 May 2022, coming on as a second-half substitute for Apodi in a 1–0 away win over Red Bull Bragantino, for the year's Copa do Brasil.[8] His top tier debut occurred six days later, as he started in a 2–1 away win over Botafogo but had to leave after just nine minutes due to a serious knee injury.[9]
