Picks up injury in training Tameze has suffered a low-grade muscular distraction of the right biceps femoris, Torino announced.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Subs in late against Lazio Tameze (illness) had one key pass and one interception in 15 minutes in Thursday's 2-0 loss to Lazio.

Impact Tameze got limited playing time after an illness and a suspension. He'll feature more versus Roma on Monday if the coach rotates his men following a midweek fixture.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for Lazio game Tameze (illness) has been selected for Thursday's fixture versus Lazio, his team relayed.

Impact Tameze won't need to miss time because of the flu, but his minutes might be limited because of it, especially since Koffi Djidji is available in the back and all the other midfielders are healthier. He has totaled eight tackles (six won), 13 interceptions and three key passes in his last five appearances.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

In doubt for Lazio match Tameze hasn't trained fully in the last couple of days due to the flu, coach Ivan Juric relayed.

Impact Tameze will be evaluated on game day to see whether he could at least be an option in the back and in the midfield, given his versatility. Koffi Djidji (ankle) is also banged up as far as the first role is concerned, so the coach might have to come up with unusual solutions. Instead, the other midfielders are all healthy.

FEBRUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Will return against Lazio Tameze completed a one-game disqualification in Friday's 2-0 win over Lecce.

Impact Tameze will be in contention to play either in the back over Koffi Djidji or in the midfield instead of Samuele Ricci or Ivan Ilic considering also the short turnaround. He has logged five tackles (four won), seven interceptions and six clearances in his last four showings.

Impact Tameze won't miss any time with his latest injury, returning to the starting XI Saturday like many expected after healing from a calf injury he picked up midweek.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go for Saturday Tameze (calf) has avoided injuries and will be an option for Saturday's away game versus Sassuolo, Sky Italy reported.

Impact Tameze bowed out early mostly due to cramps in the previous game, didn't require further tests, and has been training fully for multiple days. He'll compete for the starting job with Koffi Djidji unless one of the two moves to a different spot in the defense since Alessandro Buongiorno (shoulder) is out and Ricardo Rodriguez (thigh) is iffy. He has tallied five tackles (four won), 13 interceptions and nine clearances in his last five appearances.

He has tallied five tackles (four won), 14 interceptions, and 10 clearances in his last five showings.

The 29-year-old earned his first finding Antonio Sanabria in the fifth minute for the opening goal and added onto that by assisting on Nikola Vlasic's game-winner.
