Adebayor back at training
by Laurent Picard, 21 July 2008

Adebayor: Back for Arsenal.

Arsenal have confirmed to setantasports.com that Emmanuel Adebayor has returned to training alongside the other Gunners players who were involved in international action this summer.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger gave an extended break to those on international duty, but he has also had to contend with speculation surrounding the future of the Togolese.

The forward has been linked with Barca and Milan and hinted he would look to move on if he was not given a new contract.

Wenger has insisted that he will not break The Gunners’ pay structure for any player and the striker has now returned to training.

There has been no word on what sort of reception Adebayor received, but reports claim he has now taken the decision to commit his future to Arsenal.

Adam Richards - 21 July 2008 18:23: Adebayor is absolute rubbish. We should buy someone half decent like crouch or berbatov. He absolutley fluked the amount of goals he scored last year and even Ralph Terrett could have scored that many goals with the amount of chances he had.; Report this to a moderator

Teddy Bear RFC - 21 July 2008 18:04: Adebayor had a very good season last year and he looks to have the credentials to be a world class player. However he has only produced these talents over ONE season. For me he is being very greedy. I don't think many would be against him if he asked for massive wages had he produced this form over 3-4 years. ONE season Ade!!! Very selfish and poor professionalism from Adebayor on show here.; Report this to a moderator

kehinde oladimeji - 21 July 2008 17:50: i think adebayor needs to be realistic about his football career,he needs to concentrate more on his game,increase technical ability rather than struggle to earn fat salary.; Report this to a moderator

cesc#4 - 21 July 2008 17:24: maybe Ade should follow our brillant string-puller in the midfield, Cescy......it's called loyalty and loyalty is something supporters never forget, even after you leave in a few years to go somewhere else, cuz it looks like eventually ylou will leave....give the club 5-6 years, then you can look elsewhere...... loyalty mate, try it out, supporters will always love you because of it!! Gunners Forever; Report this to a moderator

Ade..u better listen to me now!d more money u have, d more problems u see....concentrate on ur footie and improve! - 21 July 2008 16:40: jyde; Report this to a moderator

Jessica - 21 July 2008 16:26: I'm glad to hear that - bout time he committed his future; Report this to a moderator

Jacqui - 21 July 2008 16:16: Let him go, yes I think he has earned a pay rise, but thirty goals does not justify £120 per week. Let him go and he will soon be chasing his shadow and the ball. I hope on the opening day of the season, everyone boo's him, greedy bastard.; Report this to a moderator

Nunhead Gooner - 21 July 2008 16:00: Adebayor should thank God he play football instead of being greedy, 60,000 quid a week that's what some company directors earn a year and millions of people earn less than 1/3 of that a year. He should concentrate on improving his game before asking for huge increase. A word of advise for ade; many stars come and go at Arsenal but they always become nobody at the other side.; Report this to a moderator

Goonerton - 21 July 2008 15:54: A paper prints that Adebayor has asked for 120k and you all believe it?!? I don't believe that he asked for parity with what Henry used to earn yet you are saying it like its gospel because you heard it in the Sun. Nobody knows what he is currently on he hasnt shown you his wage packet so stop second guessing. The truth is we dont know all the facts and have to faith in Wenger and the boards judgement. If Adebayor had acted as badly as the papers had made out i think wenger would be rather more upset with him. However he has said already today that 99% of what has been said about the Adebayor situation this summer is untrue. And i know who i believe. You should all try some positive thinking. You will live much longer!; Report this to a moderator

Setanta readers' comment of the day

“I'm glad he's staying!! For a few weeks there I thought we were going to get ripped off TWICE in 1 summer! Robbie Keane is a very good footballer but worth £20million i'm not sure. £18million for Barry and £12million for Alonso!! Jesus is it just me or does EVERYONE else see that as terrible business?? Rafa has a plan that he obviously thought Barry would be the perfect cog in his midfield machine but maybe next year, maybe not. I'm not sure about Riera but i'm willing to give him a chance like he deserves!! I hope we win the league this year but Chelsea are looking very strong.”
