According to reports, Olympique Lyonnais and Hamburger SV have been interested in Panathinaikos' 25-year-old North Macedonian forward, Elmin Rastoder, since last summer. The striker has received limited playing time with his current team because he is ranked behind Tettey, Levi Garcia, and Dessers. Due to this limited playing time, a loan move in the upcoming January window is considered a possibility for him to gain more experience. It is believed that Rastoder is already considering his options for the winter transfer period. He joined the Greek club in July 2026 and is under contract until 2030. The forward has 11 caps for North Macedonia and a current market value of €3.50m, according to Transfermarkt.
