36-yr-old former Chelsea defender Ivanovic set for Premier League return

Former Chelsea’s favorite Branislav Ivanovic looks to be on the verge of securing a move back to the English Premier League.

The veteran Serbian defender has spent the last three years with Russian giants Zenit Saint Petersburg since leaving Stamford Bridge in 2017 but now seems likely to reunite with former Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti by sealing a free transfer to Everton.

“I will probably continue my career at Everton,” said the 36-year-old, who is also a target for Red Star Belgrade in his homeland after exiting the Russian club last season.

“I received a good offer from them.

“I will see how things will turn out.”
