Christian Terlizzi (born 22 November 1979 in Rome) is an Italian footballer currently signed to Catania.

[edit] Football career

Terlizzi spent his first half of career playing on lower divisions, even at the amateur level. In 2003 he joined then-Serie B club Palermo, where he gained promotion to Serie A, then making his debut in the top division at the age of 25.

On 2006, he was signed by Sampdoria in a co-ownership bid, along with Pietro Accardi and Massimo Bonanni, as part of the deal of Aimo Diana and Marco Pisano. Terlizzi made his Italy national team debut together with Sampdoria teammates Giulio Falcone, Gennaro Del Vecchio and Angelo Palombo in a 0-2 loss to Croatia, a friendly match played on August 16, 2006. But he just played 4 games for the Genoa club. He was transferred to Catania on 18 July 2007.
