The Greek international was signed by Paolo Di Canio 18 months ago, but he has rarely featured under current boss Gus Poyet, with his last appearance coming a year ago.
The Daily Star claims that Celtic have been tracking the 20-year-old, but Panathinaikos hope to seal a loan deal until the end of the season before Monday's transfer deadline.
Sunderland paid Panathinaikos £2.5m to sign Mavrias.
