Matthew Done (born 22 July 1988) is an English former professional footballer who is a Player Development Phase Coach at EFL League Two club Port Vale. In a seventeen-year playing career, he scored 60 goals in 592 league and cup appearances, playing mostly as a winger or as a striker.

Done began his career at Wrexham, debuting at seventeen in August 2005. He established himself in the first team during the 2006–07 and 2006–07 seasons but left the club following their relegation out of the English Football League. He joined Hereford United for an undisclosed fee and played 64 games throughout two seasons. He spent the 2010–11 campaign with Rochdale, where his performances earned him a move to Championship club Barnsley in June 2011. He made 47 appearances in two seasons, spending the latter half of the 2012–13 season on loan at Hibernian in the Scottish Premier League. Released by Barnsley, he rejoined Rochdale in July 2013.

He helped Rochdale to secure promotion out of League Two at the end of the 2013–14 season. He earned a move to League One rivals Sheffield United in February 2015. In two-and-a-half seasons with the club, he made 87 appearances and helped United to win promotion as champions of League One at the end of the 2016–17 campaign. He then joined Rochdale for a third spell in August 2017, where he would remain for another five seasons, making a further 200 appearances before his retirement at the end of the 2021–22 season.

He coached in the academy at Port Vale before being appointed joint interim coach of the first team in February 2024.
