We reported earlier about Barca’s confidence that they would be able to land Emmanuel Adebayor, but his agent, Vincenzo Morabito, thinks differently. He claims AC Milan have a “70 to 80% chance” of signing the Arsenal striker.
We are guessing Milan is willing to pay Arsenals full asking price of £27 million.
“Milan have already stated their position, while Arsenal have started moving in the market in the hunt for an attacker to replace Adebayor,” Morabito told Italian television channel Mediaset.
“Until that search ends the deal won’t move forward but I am quite optimistic because Arsenal are looking for a player. They’re talking about (Mario) Gomez, (Roque) Santa Cruz, and (Peter) Crouch.
“I’d say there’s a 70 to 80% chance Adebayor will go to Milan.”
Reports in Spain suggested that Barcelona had reached a deal to sign Adebayor, but Morabito confirmed the 24-year-old Togo international favours a move to the San Siro.
“With all respect to Arsenal, (Adebayor) would be very happy to play for the Rossoneri. Therefore, if the two clubs reach an agreement, the deal will be finalised.”
