Denis César de Matos (14 April 1987), known as just Denis, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Brazilian club Sport.

Career

Denis was born in Jaú, São Paulo. A Ponte Preta youth graduate, he was promoted to the main squad in 2006, but was third-choice (behind Jean and Aranha). He made his first team debut on 24 February 2007, starting in a 1–2 away loss against Grêmio Barueri for the Campeonato Paulista championship.

Denis appeared regularly during that year's Série B, mainly profiting from Aranha's injury. He would spend the rest of his spell as a backup, however.

Denis moved to São Paulo on 22 January 2009.[1] He made his debut for the club three days later, replacing injured Rogério Ceni in a 2–0 away win against Portuguesa.[2] He would spend his first two years behind Ceni and Bosco.

In 2011 Denis was promoted to back up, after Bosco's retirement. In the following year, after profiting from Ceni's serious injury, he appeared regularly for Tricolor, but was again backup after the latter's recovery.

Aris

On 2 July 2021, Greek Super League club Aris announced he signed a two-year contract with the club.[3]

On 22 July 2021, Denis made his debut for Aris on a 2-0 away loss against Astana fc for the 2nd play off round of Conference League
