Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas admitted this morning that a transfer offer has been made for Brazilian defender Alex. The defender slapped in a transfer request last month and is expected to quit Stamford Bridge before the end of the transfer window.

  • Chelsea are reportedly looking for around 6.5m GBP to release the Brazilian centre back, and Andre Villas-Boas has already identified a ready made replacement in Gary Cahill, who will join later in the month from Bolton.



    Alex has been a consistent regular for Chelsea since arriving from PSV Eindhoven, but has struggled to force his way into the first team since Portuguese manager Andre Villas-Boas took charge at the beginning of last summer.
