Willian is on the verge of completing a surprise return to Fulham on a six-month contract.
The former Brazil international is finalising his move to Craven Cottage, which was first revealed by Mail Sport on Monday night and will sign a deal until the end of the season provided there are no last minute hitches.
The 36-year-old is a free agent after leaving Olympiacos last year so can sign for a new club despite the transfer window now being shut.
Willian has extensive Premier League experience, having spent spells with Chelsea, Arsenal and Fulham.
