Former Arsenal and Chelsea winger Willian could be set for a sensational return to the Premier League. The 36-year-old's last stint in the English top flight came during a two-year spell at Fulham. Willian joined Greek giants Olympiacos when he left Craven Cottage last summer but made only 11 appearances for the club in all competitions before prematurely ending his one-year deal in December.

The Brazilian international is now attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs looking to bolster their attacking options this month. In total he made 317 appearances in the Premier League and scored 47 goals, while he provided 46 assists.

Willian won the Premier League title with Chelsea in the 2014-15 and 2016-17 seasons, while he also won the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Europa League with the Blues. Willian left Olympiacos in December despite only joining the Greek giants from Fulham in September.

The Brazilian claimed two Premier League titles during his seven-year spell at Chelsea. The 36-year-old enjoyed a career resurgence during his time with Fulham in the Premier League. While he made a significant impact at Stamford Bridge, the same couldn't be said of Willian's time at Arsenal, for whom he struggled.

After returning to Brazil with Corinthians, Willian then headed back to the Premier League with Fulham, where he scored ten goals in 67 games. He commenced his career with Corinthians and then played for Shakhtar Donetsk prior to joining Anzhi Makhachkala.
