Roaring with delight: Emmanuel Adebayor is
desperate to leave Manchester City after falling way down the
pecking order
Real Madrid are keen to take Emmanuel Adebayor on a
short-term loan from Manchester City but the move will go ahead
only when City have completed a deal for Edin Dzeko.
City remain confident of signing the 24-yearold Bosnia striker
from German club Wolfsburg but have yet to finalise terms, and
while that hangs in the balance Adebayor will remain at
Eastlands.
The Togo striker is also wanted by Premier League clubs but Real
will pay his £140,000-aweek pay in full — though City would still
prefer a permanent deal.
City have also invited Brazil youth international goalkeeper
Luis Guilherme to train with them.
The 18-year-old made a similar move to Arsenal when he was 15 —
he was looked after by Kolo Toure while at the Emirates — but
returned home to sign a professional contract at Botafogo.
