Scores against Spezia Demme won two of two tackles and two duels, created one chance and scored on his only shot in Sunday's 3-0 win over Spezia.

Impact Demme rounded out the score with a point-blank finish after a nice interplay with Andrea Petagna in the box. It was his first goal of the season. He has mostly served a backup role in 2021/2022, logging 35 tackles, 11 interceptions, eight chances and four blocks in 24 appearances (11 starts).

Comes off bench versus Lazio Demme (COVID) committed one foul in 17 minutes in Sunday's 4-0 win over Lazio.

Impact Demme returned from a COVID-related absence but did not have a meaningful impact. He will alternate with Stanislav Lobotka in the midfield to fill in for the injured Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa. He has logged two goals, three assists, 5+66 tackles and 14 clearances in 24 matches last season. Napoli will face Sassuolo away Wednesday.

Will be available versus Lazio Demme (COVID) will be called up but probably not start in Sunday's match against Lazio, Il Mattino reports.

Impact Demme immediately returned to full pratice after clearing the COVID protocol. While he would be the top candidate to replace the injured Andre-Franck Zambo Anguissa, it is possible the coach will elect to bring him off the bench since he has been held out practice for two weeks. Should that be the case, either Stanislav Lobotka or Elijf Elmas would start in the midfield.

Shakes off Coronavirus Demme has tested negative for COVID and will soon return to practice, Napoli announced.

Impact Demme will have a few days to be ready ahead of Sunday's clash with Lazio. He should have a bigger role moving forward since Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa will miss some time with a thigh injury.

Tests positive for COVID-19 Demme has contracted Coronavirus, is asymptomatic and is isolating at home, Napoli announced.

Impact Demme is reportedly vaccinated and that could help him shake off the viral infection in a shorter amount of time. It remains to be seen whether he will be available for November 21st's game versus Inter.

Plays two minutes versus Cagliari Demme (knee) had seven passes while subbing in late in Sunday's 2-0 win over Cagliari.

Impact Demme managed to return from a knee sprain that sidelined him in the early portion of the schedule. While he was a regular last season, Andre Zambo Anguissa has quickly asserted himself as a key player in the Napoli scheme. Demme will have to share time with him and Fabian Ruiz. Napoli will face Fiorentina away Sunday.

Will return in Cagliari match Demme (knee) will be called up for Sunday's game versus Cagliari, coach Luciano Spalletti informed.

Impact Demme missed the early game due to a knee sprain, but he has been practicing fully for about a week. He will provide depth to the midfield, as Fabian Ruiz and Andre Zambo Anguissa have logged heavy minutes in recent games since Stanislav Lobotka was on the mend as well. He has posted two goals, three assists, 56 tackles and 20 chances created in 24 games last season.

Undergoes surgery Demme went under the knife to repair a torn MCL in the right knee and will rest completely for ten days before starting the rehab, Napoli informed.

Impact Demme underwent further tests after the initial diagnosis, which revealed that the ligament had a detachment, forcing the operation. He is now facing a two-to-three month timetable for his return, Ansa reports. If Napoli did not sign a new midfielder, Stanislav Lobotka and Eljif Elmas would see more playing time to open the season.

Will miss extended time Demme has sustained a grade 2/3 sprain of the MCL in the right knee, Napoli announced.

Impact Demme will not undergo surgery for now. While Napoli simply stated that he will be re-evaluated over the next few weeks, it could take him up to two months to return, La Repubblica reports. He is set to miss at least the first two matches against Venezia and Genoa. Napoli will lean more on Stanislav Lobotka and Eljif Elmas to open the season.

Sprains knee during friendly Demme has suffered a severe right-knee sprain during a pre-season match and will soon undergo further tests, Napoli informed.

Impact Demme bowed out early in a game versus Pro Vercelli and requires further exams to verify whether he sustained any structural damage. With one month to go before the start of the season, Demme is in danger of missing the opening match.
