Alex off to Juventus

30 August 2011 09:50
Gone in 24 hours Alex looks set to complete his move to Juventus ahead of transfer deadline day which is tomorrow evening. The Brazil centre-back is desperate to leave west London as he is no longer in Andre Villas-Boas's long-term plans and sees a move to Italy as a surefire way to restart his international career. Alex has played 111 games for the Blues following his signing in 2007 after a loan spell in Holland with PSV. He scored 10 goals for the Blues - many long-range bullet free-kicks. But the signing on international team mate David Luiz effectively has ended his SW6 career.
