Albano Benjamín Bizzarri (born 9 November 1977) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Italian club Delfino Pescara 1936 as a goalkeeper.
He spent the vast majority of his professional career in Spain and Italy, starting out at Real Madrid in 1999.
Born in Etruria, Córdoba of Italian descent, Bizzarri began his career with Racing Club de Avellaneda in the Argentine Primera División, where his good performances drew attention from La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid, which signed him in 1999. Unsettled and blocked by the emergence of 18-year-old Iker Casillas, he battled for second-choice status with Bodo Illgner, being a used player in the club's victorious campaign in the UEFA Champions League.
During the summer of 2000, Bizzarri was transferred to Real Valladolid, eventually becoming first-choice. He did not miss one single league game from 2002 to 2004, but his team would be relegated from the top flight in the latter season.
In 2006–07, Bizzarri played for Gimnàstic de Tarragona, in another campaign that ended in top level demotion. In June 2007, he signed a two-year deal with Italy's Calcio Catania, a contract that would be renewed at the end of the season for an equal period.
