[edit] Club career

Matthieu began his career in Alsace playing for local club AS Ernolsheim/Bruche. In 2003, he moved to the famous Sochaux academy. During his youth career with Sochaux, he won the Coupe Gambardella in 2007. He was listed as the 3^rd goalkeeper for the 2007–08 season and appeared on the bench several times including two UEFA Cup matches, though he didn't make an appearance. He signed his first professional contract following the season agreeing to a three year deal.^[1]He was officially promoted to the senior squad and given the number 30 shirt, the common number for the 3^rd choice keeper in France.

For much of the 2008–09 season, Matthieu played in the CFA helping the Sochaux reserves finish a respectable 6^th. He made his professional debut on 28 February 2009 starting in goal, ahead of 2^nd choice Jérémy Gavanon, for the injured Teddy Richert against Nice. For his efforts, Matthieu earned a clean sheet in a 1–0 victory with Václav Svěrkoš scoring the lone goal.^[2]

[edit] International career

Matthieu has been a France international since age 12 when he earned caps with his local regional sides, Bas-Rhin and Alsace, in the Predator Cup. He has featured with the U-15s, U-16s, U-17s, and the U-18s. On 25 May 2009, he was selected to the under-20 squad to participate in the 2009 Mediterranean Games.
