The 29-year-old is ready to snub a move to Queens Park Rangers in favour of a move to Paris.

Alex is expected to join PSG if the French side agree a fee with Chelsea.

Alex's agent, Giuliano Bertolucci, told L'Equipe of discussions in Paris: "We didn't receive any official offer from PSG.

"At the current stage, it is only talks, but they have started well. Alex has a big desire to join PSG."
