Career

Born in Gorleston, Norfolk, Matthews began his career at the academy of Norwich City. After an injury to their last loanee Chris Weale, Matthews was signed on a month-long loan by League Two team Burton Albion on 27 November 2014.[1] Two days later, he was included in a matchday squad for the first time in his career, remaining an unused substitute in their 1–0 loss at Shrewsbury Town;[2] this would happen four more times in his spell as he left without an appearance.

On 6 July 2015, Matthews returned to Burton, of League One, on loan until the next January.[3] A week later, he signed a new two-year contract at his parent club.[4] He made his professional debut on 8 August, a 2–1 win against Scunthorpe United at the Pirelli Stadium in Burton's first ever League One match.[5]

After six games in all competitions, Matthews returned to Norwich. On 24 March 2016 he went back to League One, joining Doncaster Rovers for the rest of the season.[6]
