Adebayor moves to Spurs on loan
Tottenham are confident of sealing a season-long loan move for Emmanuel Adebayor within the next 48 hours, Goal.com reported.
Spurs have agreed terms in principle with Manchester City and the Togolese forward is expected to make his debut against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night.
The two clubs have been locked in talks for weeks over the structure of the deal. City were initially reluctant to pay a large portion of Adebayor’s £170,000-a-week wages but eventually relented and will pay £85,000-a-week of the 27-year-old’s earnings to complete the switch.
However, Spurs will pay a loan fee to City to take Adebayor for the season, which is believed to be at least £2m.
