Cristiano Lupatelli (born 21 June 1978 in Perugia) is an Italian former goalkeeper. He is known for his trademark goatee and sideburns with his bald head.
Lupatelli won a scudetto while playing for A.S. Roma in season 2000–01. A Roma youth product, Lupatelli was farmed to Chievo for the 2001–02 and 2002–03 seasons, after he played just 12 Serie A games for the capital club, wearing the number 10 jersey, despite being a goalkeeper. He was sold to Chievo for 3 billion Italian lire in a co-ownership deal in 2002. In the 2003–04 season, he returned to Roma for €0.9million, as the backup of Ivan Pelizzoli.
In summer 2004, he joined Fiorentina on a free transfer.
Lupatelli featured regularly for the Fiorentina first team in the 2004–05 season, but after the arrival of Sébastien Frey in 2005, Bogdan Lobonţ in the 2006–07 season, and Vlada Avramov in 2007, he became the club's third choice keeper, and was loaned out to Parma during 2005–06 season for part of Frey's deal.
Whilst on loan at Parma F.C., he was exchanged with Matteo Guardalben mid-season.
