Emmanuel Adebayor could be on his way to White Hart Lane after recent comments?
Emmanuel Adebayor could be the solution to Spurs' striking options after the former Arsenal player admitted that he would not reject any sort of approach from the North London Club. Adebayor recently revealed that he was certainly affected from the racism chants by the Spurs fans in their Champions League semi final clash. However, the Real Madrid forward was quick to reiterate that the fans might even be part of his life in the future.
"I heard about the chants and I felt so bad because before joining Rea Madrid, my first choice was Tottenham. When I heard the songs I didn't take it seriously. I didn't take it in a bad way at all but it was bad because people today have to realise that we are footballers.
"Today we play for this club and the next day we might end up playing for them. I would go there and sign for them. Maybe those fans were furious because I was scoring against them.
"Maybe they were thinking like that because Adebayor was taking them out of the Champions League and ending their dream of getting to the final. Fans have to try to control their emotions, as we do as footballers.
"They have to tell the fans: 'please, try to control your emotions. We are all human beings'. What is the point in going into a stand and singing a song that you know is racist and then going out into the street and saying to me: 'I'm not racist, come to Tottenham.
"Football is a game. Don't get me wrong, there is money and other things in it too, but it's still only a game.''
Adebayor is currently at the Santiago Bernabeu on-loan from Manchester City and his future with the Spanish club is under serious doubt with the return to fitness of Gonzalo Higuain. Nevertheless, Harry Redknapp is on the look for a new striker, and Adebayor could very well be the perfect signing for Spurs next season.
