Caio Matias Marques (born 14 May 1994), commonly known as Caio Matias, is a Brazilian former footballer.
Career Born in Ouricuri in the Brazilian state of Pernambuco, Matias started his career with Araripina, 65 kilometres from his home. In 2012, at the age of seventeen, he was invited to join the academy of Pernambuco-based Porto, and quickly integrated himself into the club's under-20 squad. The following year he would make his professional debut, and over the next two seasons he established himself in the first-team. His performances, as well as featuring at the 2015 Summer Universiade with Brazil, earned him a loan move to Série B club Náutico in 2015.
However, he failed to make an appearance for Náutico, and in his last season with Porto he only made one appearance in the Campeonato Pernambucano. In January 2019, he moved to Greece to sign for Football League club Aittitos Spata. He returned to Brazil the following year, having a short spell with Boa Esporte before joining CEOV Operário. However it was with Murici that he impressed in the 2020 Campeonato Alagoano. After featuring for Coruripe in the Série D, his last club would be Parnahyba, whom he joined in February 2021.
