Daisuke Matsui (松井 大輔 Matsui Daisuke?, 11 May 1981) is a Japanese footballer currently playing for Júbilo Iwata. He has previously played for Kyoto Purple Sanga, Le Mans FC, AS Saint-Etienne, FC Tom Tomsk, Dijon, Slavia Sofia and Lechia Gdańsk.
His wife is a Japanese actress Rosa Kato.
In 2000, Matsui graduated from Kagoshima Commercial High School (鹿児島実業高校 Kagoshima Jitsugyō Kōkō?) and began his professional career with Kyoto Purple Sanga of the J. League.
After his J. League rookie season Purple Sanga were relegated to J. League Division 2. However, the following season Matsui played a prominent role in helping his club finish first in Division 2, earning the club a promotion back to Division 1. In 2002 the club continued their success by having a strong season, finishing sixth in the league and winning the Emperor's Cup. The club's success and Matsui's increased exposure lead to Matsui being called up to the national team for the first time in 2003. However, his club was again relegated to Division 2 after the 2003 season, and could not earn a return to Division 1 after the 2004 season.
