Matthew sent a last text to friends saying that he had lost the trail before he vanished.
He also sent a photograph of the Cross of Daloo - the viewpoint close to where the body was located.
This clue led to an intense search of the trails in the surrounding area after Matthew was reported missing.
Italian police said the body was found at 19:00 local time and that Matthew's family has been informed, reports the BBC.
