Christian Schulz (born 1 April 1983 in Bassum, Lower Saxony) is a German footballer, currently with German Bundesliga club Hannover 96 as a centre back.[1]

He joined Werder Bremen in 1995 at the age of twelve and stepped up to the reserve side, playing in the Regionalliga in 2001–02. He made his Bundesliga debut on 15 February 2003 as a substitute against 1. FC Nuremberg. When Ümit Davala was injured, Schulz stepped in and made the left back position his own.
