Club career
Born in Barreiro, Setúbal District, Matias finished his youth career at Sporting Clube de Portugal. He never represented the first team officially as a senior, being consecutively loaned to Varzim SC, C.D. Fátima and Real Sport Clube, with all the clubs but the third competing in the Segunda Liga.
Matias signed with Vitória S.C. in the 2010 summer, being immediately loaned to S.C. Freamunde in the second level for two years. He subsequently returned to Guimarães, making his debut in the Primeira Liga on 19 August 2012 by coming on as a 62nd minute substitute in a 0–0 home draw against Sporting, and finished his first season with 20 scoreless appearances.
Matias scored his first goal in the main category of Portuguese football on 31 August 2013, but in a 1–4 home loss to Vitória de Setúbal. On 19 July 2014 he joined fellow league side C.D. Nacional, netting 21 times from 42 competitive games to help the Madeirans to the seventh position.
In July 2015, Matias signed a four-year deal with Championship club Sheffield Wednesday. His first goal came in his fourth league appearance on 22 August, the 1–1 draw against Leeds United – a volley from 18 yards that flew in off the underside of the bar.
International career
Matias gained five caps for the Portuguese under-21 team. His first came on 11 July 2009, as he played the full 90 minutes in a 0–1 loss against Cape Verde for the Lusophony Games.
