Mattheus de Andrade Gama de Oliveira, sometimes known as just Mattheus Oliveira or Mattheus (born 7 July 1994), is a Brazilian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Emirati club Khor Fakkan.
Early life
[edit]Mattheus Oliveira is the son of former Brazilian player Bebeto, and became widely known just days after his birth due to his father's 'cradle-rocking' celebration on scoring a crucial goal against the Netherlands in the 1994 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals.[1]
Career
[edit]Flamengo
[edit]Mattheus Oliveira made his professional debut for Flamengo on 3 February 2012, as a 77th-minute substitute for Lucas Quintino in a goalless home Campeonato Carioca match against Olaria; it was his only appearance of the season.[2] On 17 June, he made his Campeonato Brasileiro Série A debut, coming on in added time for Ibson in a 1–0 home win over Santos.[3] He made 11 appearances in that campaign, with three starts, the first of which was a goalless draw against Portuguesa at the Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos on 27 July.[4]
Mattheus Oliveira played five games as Flamengo won the 2014 Campeonato Carioca.[5]
Estoril
[edit]On 30 January 2015, Mattheus Oliveira was loaned to Estoril in Portugal's Primeira Liga.[6] He began playing regularly in 2015–16, scoring his first professional goals on 7 March with two in a 3–1 win at Rio Ave,[7] and repeated the feat 13 days later in a 3–0 win at Académica de Coimbra.[8]
Sporting
[edit]In May 2017, Mattheus Oliveira signed a five-year deal with Sporting CP.[1] The buyout clause was set at €60 million.[9] In November 2020, the €2 million transfer fee was investigated by Portuguese courts for being double the player's valuation by the website Transfermarkt.[10]
Mattheus Oliveira made his Sporting debut on 19 September 2017 in a goalless Taça da Liga group game at home to Marítimo, as a starter.[11] He also made a brief appearance in the Taça de Portugal against Famalicão and played one game in the UEFA Champions League in November against Olympiacos.[12]
On 23 January 2018, Mattheus Oliveira was loaned to fellow Primeira Liga club Vitória SC for the rest of the season.[13] At the end of the campaign, he returned to Sporting, but, at the start of the 2018–19 season, rejoined Vitória on another season-long loan from Sporting.[14]
Mattheus Oliveira returned to his homeland's top flight on 30 September 2020, being lent to Coritiba until the following June.[15] He played 12 games for the Coxo, scoring once at the end of a 3–1 loss on his return to Flamengo on 21 November.[16] He missed the 2021 Campeonato Paranaense with a thigh injury.[17]
Mattheus Oliveira cancelled his contract with Sporting by mutual consent in September 2021.[18]
Mafra
[edit]On 25 January 2022, Mattheus Oliveira signed an 18-month deal with Liga Portugal 2 outfit Mafra.[19]
Farense
[edit]In January 2023, Mattheus signed with Farense in Liga Portugal 2.[20] At the end of the season, the Faro club finished second in the league, achieving promotion to the Primeira Liga.[21]
On 30 September 2023, in a Primeira Liga match at the Estádio de São Luís, Oliveira scored two free kicks against his former club Sporting CP, with Farense losing by 2–3.[22]
