Mateus José Iseppe (born 2 May 2006) is a Brazilian footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Primeira Liga club Nacional, on loan from Atlético Mineiro.

Career

Born in Pirassununga, São Paulo, Iseppe joined Atlético Mineiro's youth setup in 2022, from Velo Clube.[2] On 4 August 2023, he renewed his contract with the club until July 2026,[3] and further extended his link until December 2028 on 23 October.[4]

In January 2025, Iseppe was promoted to the first team by head coach Cuca,[5] but was cut from the Campeonato Mineiro debut after having variations in his pre-match cardiological exams.[6] He returned to training in May,[7] and played for the under-20s to regain match fitness.

Iseppe made his first team – and Série A – debut on 24 August 2025, coming on as a late substitute for Gabriel Menino in a 2–0 away loss to São Paulo.[8][9]

Personal life

Iseppe comes from a family of footballers: his father Marcelo[2] and his older brothers Leonardo and João Pedro are all also midfielders.
