Free agent Florent Malouda might be heading to Greek side Olympiacos according to French magazine France Football.
The former Chelsea midfielder was once an integral part of the London club, but due to a dispute over wages in 2012, he was left to train with the Under-21 squad until the expiration of his contract this summer.
Malouda requested to leave last summer and despite interest from his former employers Lyon and a clutch of Brazilian clubs, refused to budge from his £80,000 a week salary thus blocking any potential move away from Chelsea.
Olympiacos are reportedly willing to offer the Frenchman a two-year contract but his wage demands are still a stumbling block to the completion of the deal.

The club from Greece are also believed to have Valenciennes midfielder Matthew Dossevi on their radar.
Malouda made 220 appearances for Chelsea during his time at Stamford Bridge, netting 45 goals in the process.
