Diego Demme was actually brought to Berlin as a leading player in the summer of 2024 if Hertha BSC should give new stability in midfield. Due to a head injury, the veteran failed for months, then searched for his best form in the 2nd Bundesliga. Nevertheless, there are now new transfer rumors about the former international.
According to the Italian source “Sky Italia”, Diego Demme should be very popular with the second division promoted US Avellino. The club from near Naples, where Demme was already under contract between 2020 and 2024 and celebrated great success, has targeted the 33-year-old and is said to be hot for an obligation.
Demme still has a ongoing contract at Hertha BSC until 2026, should generally also feel at Hertha BSC. Despite his injury, in 2024/2025 he brought it to 18 starting eleven missions for the capital club in the 2nd Bundesliga.
According to information from the “Bild”, a final decision about how the unique German international player continues should not yet have been made.
Demme not in the Bundesliga for over five years
Us Avellino is also not said to be the only club where the central defensive midfielder is on the note. According to the newspaper report, “other clubs from Italy, Spain and Turkey” have also become attentive to Demme, which probably wants to get on at the highest possible level.
The dream of quick ascent with Hertha BSC had quickly smashed in the past season. The Berliners only ended the season in a disappointing eleventh place in the table. Diego Demme had already contested 105 first division games with RB Leipzig. However, the last of them were five and a half years ago.
