Matthew Luke Slattery[1][2] (Chinese: 馬斐; pinyin: Mǎ fěi; born 5 April 2005) is a Hong Kong professional footballer of partial English descent who currently plays as a striker for Hong Kong Premier League club Kitchee.
Club career
Slattery was promoted to the senior squad of Kitchee ahead of the 2023–24 season following good performances in the Under-18's Youth Premier League.[3] He was also rewarded with his first professional contract with the club and would don the number 96 on his debut season.[4][5][6] He made his first unofficial senior appearance as a substitute during the pre-season friendly against Chainat Hornbill with him expressing his will to continue to go on the grind and continue to improve following his lacklustre performance.[7]
Slattery would also be included in the travelling squad for the 2023–24 AFC Champions League campaign, marking his first professional away outing.[8] Slattery would then make his senior debut in the 6-2 thrashing of RCFC in the Sapling Cup as a substitute.[9][10]
International career
Slattery made his Hong Kong U-20 debut against Thailand in a friendly where he impressed for a good 90 minutes playing as a striker. He was then called up for the Hong Kong U-23 where he scored a goal against Tajikistan U-23 and stole a draw from the opponents late in the game.[11]
Slattery participated in the 2023 East Asian Games in Ulaanbaatar where he managed to fend off Mongolia as he scored another late goal to secure the win for Hong Kong.[12] However the team fell to a 8-0 thrashing from Chinese Taipei and returned home with a silver medal.[13]
Personal life
Matthew is an alumni at La Salle College and was part of the school's athletics and football team.[14][15]
