Tommaso Berni (born 6 March 1983) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Internazionale.
Berni started his career at A.C. Fiorentina. In 1998, he joined F.C. Internazionale Milano. He was a backup goalkeeper for their Primavera reserve team in 2001 Torneo di Viareggio.Marco Varaldi was the starting keeper.
In March 2001 Berni moved to England. He was released on 30 June 2003.
In the summer of 2003, he joined Ternana in Serie B.
Berni left for Lazio in the summer of 2006 in a temporary deal as Ternana got relegated to 2006–07 Serie C1. Just before the January transfer window closed, Lazio bought his full ownership for €1.5 million from Ternana, as Lazio needed a backup goalkeeper due to Angelo Peruzzi set to leave and Marco Ballotta's advancing years. He signed a contract with Lazio which lasted until June 2011.
He made his Serie A debut on 20 May 2007 against Parma, the 37th match day of the season as Lazio had already qualified for 2007–08 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. In 2007–08 season, Berni was the third-choice keeper behind Marco Ballotta and new signing Fernando Muslera. When Juan Pablo Carrizo was signed by Lazio in June 2008, Berni was loaned to Salernitana of Serie B to seek first team football in February 2009. Since arrived at Salernitana, he displaced Salvatore Pinna to the bench.
