Staying put: Emmanuel Adebayor

Tom Dutton7 April 2015

Emmanuel Adebayor has rubbished reports he is set to quit Tottenham and insists he will see out his contract with the club.

Recent reports had suggested Spurs were willing to subsidise Adebayor's wages in a bid to offload the forward this summer.

Queens Park Rangers and Crystal Palace were keen on the 31-year-old in January but his £100,000-a-week wages proved a stumbling block.

Adebayor, however, has brushed off suggestion he is set to leave Tottenham this summer, instead insisting he will see out the final year of his contract at White Hart Lane.
