On 31 August 2020, Pandur signed with Italian Serie A club Hellas Verona a five-year contract.[6][7] He made his debut on 28 October in a Coppa Italia tie with Venezia that ended 3–3 after extra time, with Verona progressing thanks to Pandur saving two penalties in the shoot-out.[8] He made his league debut on 9 May 2021 in a 1–1 draw with Torino.[9]

On 7 July 2022, Pandur agreed to a one-season loan with option to buy at Eredivisie club Fortuna Sittard.[10] He made his debut on 27 August, taking over the starting job from Yanick van Osch in a 2–1 league loss to SC Heerenveen.[11][12] He remained a starter throughout the season for Fortuna.[13]
