Willian, 36, offered to join his FOURTH Premier League club in free transfer weeks after ripping up Olympiacos contract
WILLIAN is being touted for a shock return to the Premier League.
The Brazilian, 36, left Olympiacos last month and is currently a free agent.
Willian won two Prem titles with Chelsea and spent two years across the Thames at Fulham.
He only joined up with Olympiacos in the summer but appeared just six times for the Greek side.
The winger was released from his contract on December 30 and is now eyeing a return to the Prem.
According to The Times, cash-strapped Everton are in for the former Blues ace.
The Toffees are desperate for more firepower as they look to pull away from the drop zone.
New manager David Moyes watched his side draw a blank on Wednesday, going down 1-0 to Aston Villa.
It was the ninth time Everton have failed to score in their last 11 Prem games.
Willian has previously expressed a desire to keep playing until he is 40.

The Brazilian had offers from the MLS, Saudi Arabia and Qatar in the summer before heading to Greece.
Despite his advancing years, Willian showed at Fulham he can still be an asset in the Premier League.
The forward featured 58 times for the Cottagers over two seasons, scoring nine times and assisting seven.
Moyes admitted Everton need to “add quality” if they are to retain their Premier League status.
The toothless Toffees sit just one point above the relegation places and have scored 15 goals this season, the second-lowest in the league.
Moyes said: “It is a huge challenge at the moment, I can see that.
“Sean [Dyche] has brought in a great group of players with their attitude and commitment.
But we are desperately needing to add some quality in some areas, mainly to create and to finish – we need to get those levels up.
“The club has probably not been able to go to a level of player in the market that can make the difference.”
