The Wales captain, 33, has lost his first-team place at Goodison Park.

Sources close to Williams suggest he would be open to a move to the Potters, who were relegated to the Championship last season.

Gary Rowett's side had a bid for Williams' Wales centre-back partner, James Chester, rejected by Aston Villa last month.
