Adebayor open to Tottenham switch

Adebayor open to Tottenham switch

24 November 2011 - 08:08

Tottenham's on-loan striker Emmanuel Adebayor revealed a permanent move to White Hart Lane could still be on the cards, but told the London side to put up the money to secure his switch from Man City.

  • Chelsea make first move to sign Bournemouth star
  • Atletico Madrid planning shock move for Chelsea star
  • At this point in time, Spurs cannot afford the reported 150,000 GBP per week salary that the former Togo international earns.<br />

    Instead, Spurs can only pay Adebayor around 85,000 GBP per week due to their salary structure.<br />

    Adebayor has been in sensational form this year for Spurs though, scoring two goals on Monday night to secure victory over Aston Villa. That form has Harry Redknapp weighing up a permanent move for the former Arsenal forward.<br />

    Adebayor revealed: "We all play football to get money.<br />

    "I have to give something back to my community and I will keep doing this until the end of my career.<br />

    "I will leave it to Spurs and Manchester City to find a solution between themselves.<br />

    "For me, what is important is to enjoy myself on the pitch."
