[edit] Football career
He began his career at local club Troyes, where he mainly played for the reserves in the fifth tier of French football. He made two first team appearances in Ligue 2 during the 1997-98 season. He then moved to Racing Club Paris where he played in the Championnat National
He started playing in England in the 2000-01 season when Darlington signed him from Troyes AC. However midway through the following season his contract was terminated reportedly after a breach of discipline. His next spell in English football was with Exeter City where he spent two seasons before being released at the tail end of the 2004-05 season. After a very brief spell with Bristol Rovers where he played just one game, he joined Hereford United.
In his first season at Hereford he started 52 matches, missing only 5, and scored 3 goals in all competitions, one notably on his 28th birthday when he scored a free-kick against Exeter City, a moment that was televised live. However his second season with the Bulls was less successful. After being named Player of the Month for November, and scoring against Torquay, he was suddenly dropped after the away match at Shrewsbury. Thereafter he was overlooked from the starting XI for all first team matches for the rest of the season, he did come on as a sub for the injured Mkandawire away at Wycombe; although he was the only recognised defender on the bench. On 30 April 2007 it was announced that he had left Hereford by mutual consent.
Alex also managed to hit the crossbar when Hereford participated in Soccer AM's Crossbar Challenge.
In January 2008, he joined Kiddermister on loan for three-months.[1]
