Massimo Marazzina (born 16 July 1974) is a retired Italian footballer who played as a striker.
Marazzina was born in Pandino, a city near Lodi in the Province of Cremona. He finished his football formation at F.C. Internazionale Milano, and made his Serie A debut on 27 February 1994, in a 0–2 away loss against A.C. Torino.
Subsequently, Marazzina moved to fellow first divisioner U.S. Foggia, suffering relegation in his first year, and played with the Apulia club one further season.
In 1996, Marazzina signed for A.C. Chievo Verona. In the 1999–2000 season, he scored sixteen goals for the Serie B club, one-third of the team's total. Noting his performances, first division team Reggina Calcio signed him in co-ownership deal; in the opening day of 2000–01, he scored his first topflight goal in a 2–1 home win against Inter, but his side was eventually relegated.
Marazzina returned to Chievo in 2001, scoring thirteen goals and helping the club finish in fifth place and qualify for the UEFA Cup; in September 2002, he signed a four-year extension of his contract.
In January 2003, 29-year-old Marazzina was loaned to A.S. Roma to replace Gabriel Batistuta, who had left for Inter. In July 2003, in the same predicament, he joined newly promoted U.C. Sampdoria, where he failed to be a regular starter, moving to Modena F.C. in January 2004, still on loan. He scored three goals during his four-month spell, but could not help prevent the Emilia–Romagna side from being relegated.
