Matheus Corrêa joined Corinthians back in the under-9s and went through all the stages of development until establishing himself in the under-20s, spending over a decade wearing the black-and-white shirt. During this period, he was called up to the Brazil under-17 national team in 2023, participated in the U-17 World Cup, and was part of the squad that won the 2024 Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior.
In 2025, Matheus took part in the campaign that finished as runners-up in the Copinha and played in the Brazilian Championship and the São Paulo State under-20 competitions. In the state tournament, he was the goalkeeper with the most saves (17), the most saves inside the box (12), and the leader in safe aerial claims (7).
