If Elmin Rastoder, a 24-year-old North Macedonian centre-forward, does not establish himself at Panathinaikos by January, he will likely seek an alternative solution. Panathinaikos would probably prefer to loan Rastoder to a better league if his situation does not improve by January. There are currently no rumors in Switzerland linking Rastoder with an early return. The North Macedonia international has 9 caps for his country. He joined the Greek club in July 2026 on a contract that runs until 2030. According to Transfermarkt, he has a current market value of €4.00m. Before his transfer to Panathinaikos, he had been linked with clubs including Borussia Mönchengladbach, Olympique Lyonnais, and Hamburger SV.
