Mathieu Berson (born February 23, 1980 in Vannes, France) is a French footballer who currently plays for Levante UD as a midfielder.

In somewhat of a struggle to sign the former Nantes star, a fee of 1.7 million pounds was agreed upon for his sale on August 6, 2004. After counter-offers from clubs such as RCD Espanyol, Besiktas and Galatasaray, he signed a four-year contract with Aston Villa.

His first league match at Aston Villa was made as a substitute for Pete Whittingham on December 18, 2004. For inconsistent periods he was used in the middle as a hard tackling and composed defensive midfielder. After struggling to settle during his short time in England, and a lack of first team appearances, he spent the 2005-06 season on loan at Auxerre. He returned to Aston Villa in the summer of 2006 but in August he signed for Levante UD.
