Sky Sources understand
Manchester City are in talks with Arsenal over the possible signing
of striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
Adebayor has been linked with a move away from Arsenal
this summer, with a number of European clubs said to be
interested in his services.
But the Togo international's future looked to be settled after
his agent recently stated he would be staying at Emirates
Stadium.
However, it is understood talks between affluent club City and
their Premier League rivals Arsenal over a possible deal.
The 25-year-old signed for the Gunners from Monaco in 2006 and
has scored 62 goals in 142 appearances for the North London
club.
Reports have suggested Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger could turn
to Bordeaux forward Marouane Chamakh as a replacement for
Adebayor.
City have already signed Gareth Barry and Roque Santa Cruz from
Aston Villa and Manchester City since the end of last season.
Mark Hughes is also believed to be lining up a swoop for former
Manchester United forward Carlos Tevez, while Chelsea captain John
Terry is a known target.
Manager Hughes is keen to build a side capable of breaking up
the so-called 'big four', and the potential captures of Tevez and
Adebayor would demonstrate real intent.
