Chelsea defender Alex is not interested in a loan move to Juventus but has admitted he would love the chance to join the Italians permanently.[LNB] Alex is likely to find himself behind John Terry and David Luiz in the pecking order at Stamford Bridge this season and, as a result, will be allowed to leave for the right price.[LNB]Juventus, however, want to do a loan deal and that is something neither Chelsea nor Alex are interested in.[LNB]"I am aware of Juventus' interest, but I think they want to sign me on loan and this would not be a real alternative for me or Chelsea," Alex said.[LNB]"My agent has been contacted by Juventus, I am 29 years old and it would be a great opportunity. I would love to play in Italy and I hope I can realise this dream before I retire.[LNB]"When I talked to my agent, I told him that Juve would be a real opportunity for me.[LNB]"Now, though, it all depends on Juve, who must come to an agreement with Chelsea. It is unlikely the club will accept a loan move."
