QPR boss hoping to deal in Chelsea's Alex

New QPR boss Mark Hughes has indicated that he is keen to sign Alex from Chelsea.

The Brazilian defender is certain to leave Stamford Bridge this winter and a move to Loftus Road has been heavily mooted.

Hughes refrained from naming names but suggests that the R's are definitely eager to get Alex into a Hoops shirt as soon as possible.

"I'm always a little wary about talking about players and names," Hughes said.

"The one you mentioned [Alex] is very much in that level and we would hope to bring that quality of player to the club if that's possible."
