Matheus Cotulio Bossa (born 21 February 1993), known as Matheus or Matheuzinho, is a Brazilian footballer who plays for Estoril on loan from Grêmio Osasco Audax as an attacking midfielder.

Club career

Born in Penápolis, São Paulo, Matheus joined Corinthians' youth setup in 2009, aged 16, after starting it out at São Paulo.[1] In 2012, after a short loan stint at Flamengo de Guarulhos, he was promoted to the main squad in 2012 by manager Tite.[2]

On 15 April 2012 Matheus played his first match as a professional, coming on as a late substitute for Vitor Júnior in a 2–1 away win against Ponte Preta for the Campeonato Paulista championship.[3] He subsequently served loans at Bragantino,[4] Grêmio Osasco Audax[5] and Guaratinguetá[6] before being released in 2014.

In 2015 Matheus returned to Audax, now in a permanent deal.[7] On 18 July, after being a regular starter for the club, he was loaned to Primeira Liga side G.D. Estoril Praia in a season-long deal.[8]
