Athletic career

The 1.82 meter tall and 82 kilogram defender played in his youth at Eclipse General Villegas. From 1996 to 2001 Matellán played for the Boca Juniors before the left-footed FC Schalke 04 was signed for a transfer fee of four million dollars. There he played for three years and was out for months due to an Achilles tendon injury. When Schalke subsequently signed two new central defenders, the Argentine asked to terminate his contract. The association complied with this request in early July 2004. Then he moved back to his native Argentina to the Boca Juniors. After just one year, the Spanish football club FC Getafe under coach Bernd Schuster brought the Argentinean to Spain. At Getafe, Matellán had a one-year contract with a mutual option to extend the contract. However, in 2006 he moved to the then first division promoted Gimnàstic de Tarragona. For the 2007/08 season he moved to Arsenal de Sarandí . He stayed there until 2010, during which time he made 86 appearances in which he scored four goals. In 2010 he moved to the Mexican club Club San Luis . Since Apertura 2010, 30 games have been played here with three goals scored for him.
