Paris Saint-Germain central defender Alex insists that he has no hard feelings towards his former club Chelsea, as PSG prepare to face them in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie at the Parc des Princes.
Alex, who left Chelsea in January 2012 for PSG for a fee of around £4.2m, spent four-and-a-half seasons with the west London club. He won the Premier League with them in the 2009/10 season and the FA Cup twice in 2009 and 2010.
