Transfer Talk: Willian flies to Greece for Olympiacos talks

TOP STORY: Willian considering Greek adventure

Willian travelled to Athens on Sunday night to visit Olympiacos and discuss a potential move to the Europa Conference League champions, reports Fabrizio Romano . The 36-year-old winger has several options and is assessing them as a free agent, having departed Fulham upon his contract's expiration this summer.

The former Brazil international impressed during his time with the Cottagers, scoring five goals and assisting another two in 37 appearances across all competitions last term. He has also represented Chelsea and Arsenal , winning two Premier League titles plus a Europa League, FA Cup and League Cup with the former.

"I decided to leave Fulham much before the end of the season, in January or February. I had it in my mind that I would leave after speaking with my agent and family. It wasn't a decision made at the end of the season but a couple of months ago," Willian said to the BBC last week. "I am looking at some options at the moment. I am thinking about possibilities in Europe, England , Saudi Arabia , Qatar and the MLS -- just not Brazil as an option for me.

"I am trying to see all the possibilities and think about making the right decision right now. I have some offers already and this is the key moment to decide my next challenge."
