Matthew "Matt" Villis (born 13 April 1984) is an English footballer who plays for Taunton Town as a centre back, having previously played for Bridgwater Town, Plymouth Argyle, Torquay United, Weston-Super-Mare, Tiverton Town, Bideford and Yate Town.
Villis began his career as a junior with Bridgwater Town before signing as a trainee with Plymouth Argyle, turning professional in July 2003.
He then joined Torquay United on a season-long loan deal in July 2004, making his league debut as an early substitute for Lee Canoville in a 4-2 defeat at home to Sheffield Wednesday. He went on to play 22 times that season as Torquay unsuccessfully battled against relegation from Division Two.
He was released by Plymouth at the end of the season and joined Torquay on a free transfer in June 2005. Despite beginning the season as a regular squad member, he lost his place after Torquay's FA Cup draw against non-league Harrogate Town and was linked with a move to ambitious non-league side Truro City. He returned to the Torquay side in February 2006 as the Gulls battled against a second successive relegation and was a regular until the end of the season under first John Cornforth and then Ian Atkins.
