Three Bundesliga clubs, identified as RB Leipzig, Hoffenheim, and Stuttgart, are monitoring PAOK's 23-year-old Greek international midfielder Christos Zafeiris. The player has a good reputation in the German market, and the interest from Germany reportedly follows preliminary work by his agency, THE TEAM, in preparation for a potential January move. It is specified that the attention from the German clubs is currently limited to monitoring, as no formal proposals have been made. Despite this interest, PAOK's owner, Savvidis, is not willing to sell Zafeiris in the winter. This position is firm, even in a hypothetical scenario where the player might push for a transfer. The owner's position is reportedly influenced by a desire to avoid further internal issues following the recent sale of another key player. Zafeiris has 17 caps for his country, joined PAOK in August 2025, and his contract runs until 2029. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €11.00m.
