Antoine Makoumbou, a 27-year-old Congolese and French midfielder for Samsunspor, is a target for Panathinaikos and PAOK. The two Greek clubs are expected to compete for the player. It is reported that his consistent performances have attracted their attention. Both clubs will likely approach Samsunspor's management with attractive offers. However, the Turkish club's hierarchy is reportedly willing to approve a sale only for a fee described as astronomical. Makoumbou's contract with Samsunspor is valid until 2029. The midfielder, who joined the club in July 2025, has 17 caps and one goal for Congo. In the 2025/2026 Süper Lig season, he made 32 appearances, scoring one goal and providing one assist. His current market value is €4.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
