Manchester City have finally signed Emmanuel Adebayor from Arsenal for a deal thought to be around £25m.
The 25 year old is ready to join Roque Santa Cruz, Gareth Barry and Carlos Tevez at Eastlands, who have all already signed this summer.
Adebayor was also linked with a move to AC Milan and Chelsea.
The deal brings Man City’s summer spending upto £80m – and don’t expect it too stop here. They’ve already lodged a bid for Everton centre-back Joleon Lescott, which was later rejected.
24-7 Football’s comment:
Most people will presume he has signed only for the cash, but I can assure you, your probably right! Plenty of talent at his feet but he was too ahead of himself when he demanded the same wages as Thierry Henry. A good capture football-wise for City, but is he too lazy and demanding? We shall wait and see. I put him in the same category as Didier Drogba. On a good day, hes world-class. But on a bad day, oh dear..
