According to reports from the Daily Mail, Tottenham are so determined to get goal-shy front-man Emmanuel Adebayor of their wage bill they’ll consider loaning him out next season.
The Togo international currently earns around £100k per-week, making him one of the highest earners in the Spurs squad, but since his 17-goal loan stint during the 2011/12 campaign has found just 18 goals in the space of three Premier League seasons for the north Londoners.
Daniel Levy blocked loan moves to both West Ham and QPR in the latter stages of January deadline day, but the Daily Mail claims the Spurs chairmain will be more than happy to sanction a loan next term if it means getting Adebayor off the wage bill for the final year of his lucrative contract.
Another potential scenario is the 31 year-old signing a permanent deal at another club – with the Lilywhites subsidising part of his salary.
Chelsea were surprisingly linked with Adebayor earlier this week – as reported by us at This Is Futbol – a recent news could further galvanise Jose Mourinho’s interest in the former Arsenal and Man City front-man, whom he once signed on a year-long loan at Real Madrid.
can’t we get rid of the feckless, idle, greedy, parasitic piece of S–m permanantly? John
Levy will not subsidise his salary, not in a million years and Ade will not take a paycut of any kind, so unless he moves to Turkey or the USA I can’t see anything happening.
