Everton have reportedly been offered the chance to sign experienced attacker Willian on a free transfer.
The Brazilian, who has represented Chelsea, Arsenal and Fulham in the Premier League, mutually terminated his contract with Olympiacos last month and is believed to be looking for a return to English football.
According to The Times, Everton have been offered the chance to make a move for the forward, although the Toffees are yet to decide whether it is a deal that they would be interested in pursuing at this stage.
Willian most famous spell in England came between 2013 and 2020, when he turned out for Chelsea, but he also made a big impression during two seasons with Fulham before leaving for Olympiacos.
The 36-year-old only made the switch to the Greek giants at the start of September, but his contract ended at the end of December, and he is now looking for what could be the final club of his career.

Leeds 'register interest in Iheanacho'
Meanwhile, Leeds United have reportedly registered an interest in signing Sevilla forward Kelechi Iheanacho.
The 28-year-old scored 61 times in 232 appearances for Leicester City, including five Championship goals during the 2023-24 campaign, before leaving the King Power Stadium for Sevilla.
Iheanacho has found it difficult to make his mark at Estadio Ramon, though, only managing three goals in 11 appearances, while he has not registered in his nine La Liga outings during the 2024-25 campaign.
According to Football Insider, the forward is allowed to leave on loan this month, and Leeds are one of the clubs keen to secure his services.
The report claims that the Whites 'face strong competition' from across Europe for the Nigerian, while Ipswich Town and Wolverhampton Wanderers are thought to be interested in bringing him back to the Premier League.
Iheanacho started his professional career with Manchester City, scoring 21 times and registering seven assists in 64 appearances for the Citizens before making the move to Leicester in the summer of 2017.

River Plate 'express interest in Buendia deal'
Elsewhere, Aston Villa attacker Emiliano Buendia is reportedly the subject of interest from River Plate.
The 28-year-old has found it difficult to break into the Villa side during the 2024-25 campaign, while he has only managed one goal in 17 appearances for the club this term.
Each of the attacker's 11 Premier League appearances during the current season have come off the bench, and there is currently a host of speculation surrounding his future.
According to DSports Radio, River have been in touch with Villa to ask about the playmaker, with a loan deal thought to be possible before the end of the winter market.
The report claims that the Premier League club turned down interest from a number of teams last summer, but his struggles for starts could lead to a short-term exit being agreed in the middle of the campaign.
Buendia made the move to Villa from Norwich City in July 2021, and he has represented the club on 95 occasions in all competitions, scoring 10 goals and registering nine assists in the process.
