Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp may be interested in making a move for Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor as he looks to strengthen his side for the coming season. Roberto Mancini has insisted that the Togolese international is very much part of his first team plans but the former Arsenal man has already stated his interest in a proposed move to Juventus fuelling speculation that he isn’t entirely happy at Eastlands.
The 26 year old had a decent, if not spectacular, first season at the club and with all the recent arrivals and the likely return of Robinho to the club from his loan spell, the powerfully built forward may be worried he could lose his starting spot for the forthcoming season. This may be what led to his comments relating to a potential move to Serie A.
A similar occurrence angered Arsene Wenger when Adebayor attempted to engineer a move to AC Milan and within a year the player had to be offloaded to Man City. In his first season at the club the former Monaco man managed 14 goals whilst Carlos Tevez powered on to register 29 goals and collect an array of Player of the Year awards.
Harry Redknapp is thought to be looking to bring in new strikers and has been linked with moves for the likes of Klaas Jan Huntelaar and is reportedly considering offloading Peter Crouch whilst White Hart Lane forwards Robbie Keane and Roman Pavlyuchenko are also by no means first team certainties.
A move for Emmanuel Adebayor would probably run at around £22m and a bid could well fall on deaf ears but nonetheless is appears to be a move Redknapp is considering.
Adebayor quotes relating to potential City exit: “I will be sorry to leave the Premier League, but in Europe there are other top leagues. Juventus are a great club in which I would like to play for.”

Its more likely that Adebayor goes to AC Milan then we get KJH. But I doubt any of this really. Who are the top strikers at City, Ade, Tevez, Robinho (Out), Santa Cruz (Probably Out), if they get the two there after they still don't have more strikers then us, at least ones of quality.
He's tried for both moves. The Juve one is the newest.
lol getting ridiculous now, who's next Henry... Adebayor is the last player that would ever come to Spurs, or that we'd want for that matter.
He's on 120+ grand a week. Won't happen for that reason alone. Non starter
Even forgetting who he has played for in the past, I wouldn't want him because he simply isn't good enough. Certainly not a 22 million pound, 120k a week player. He does show glimpses of quality but not often enough. The games he played against us last season pretty much past him by.
I agree with most people's views on here, he's overpaid at City plus, the WHL crowd hates him...
We don't have the money or wage structure for this deal to make sense. 22Million is way too much for him though, he's not that good.
Anyway although he did play for Arsenal, he does now hate them. Stamping on their faces and running the whole pitch to antagonise their fans. I thought you guys would love him for that.

Yeah, but our history with Adebayor has never been good, we've boo'd him when he's an Arsenal player and continue to boo him as a City player. We've also developed a song about his parent's jobs...would he want to come to us after all that? doubt it
To much money in wages and transfer fee. He is a good player do who id welcome, The scum hate him which is always a bonus.
Neeeeeeeeeeeever gonna happen!
Don't want that cancer anywhere near our club
He hates Arsenal and Kolo Toure. If he wants to stay in the Premiership, what better way to piss of the nieghbours. All is fair in love and war.
The Premiership is getting to be like a 'bleedin soap opera.....!!
