Alex out for Chelsea

Chelsea defender Alex will miss up to 3 weeks as a result of a thigh injury sustained during the 2-0 victory over Arsenal. 

Alex will now miss his country's international friendless against Iran on Thursday and Ukraine on Monday, and Chelsea expect to be without his services for the Premier League tie against Aston Villa and Champions League fixture with Spartak Moscow following the international break.

News of Alex's injury is a setback for Chelsea as his defensive partner John Terry has also been suffering from fitness concerns in recent months.
