BARCELONA, Spain (AFP) - Barcelona have made an offer to Arsenal for Togo striker Emmanuel Adebayor, Spanish newspapers reported Thursday.
The newspaper Sport said Barca had offered 29 million euros (45 million dollars), while the Mundo Deportivo said the club's limit was 25 million. "For now there is no agreement as the Gunners are asking 30 million for Adebayor while Barca will not go beyond 25," the Mundo Deportivo said. Arsenal, which paid Monaco seven million pounds (nine million euros) for Adebayor in January 2006, "will not let him go easily", said Sport. "They are asking for 30 million euros to let him leave the Emirates Stadium but Barca are standing firm at 29 and consider that an attractive offer," it said. Barcelona's new coach Josep Guardiola said Tuesday the club is seeking a new striker to replace Samuel Eto'o who could complement Thierry Henry and Bojan Krick. Arsenal are believed to be looking for a replacement for Adeboyer, but last week reportedly froze his transfer to AC Milan. |

what's the big deal with this player, i've seen him and he doesn't impress me.Giorgio June 19th, 2008 17:08
AC Milan also want Adebayor, quite badly. The president of Milan has clearly stated that they need a striker and it must be Adebayor, becaue they will not consider anyone elseajax72 June 19th, 2008 19:30
Doesn't seem that special to me. Milan can and should sign a better striker. Only handicap will be their absence from CL next season.maverick1906 June 19th, 2008 19:33
he is nothing special, i wouldn't put him in first squad of arsenal where is dudu, persie, Walcott , but because of injuries he was first choice for arsenal. so rid him better soon than laterGuuner66 June 19th, 2008 20:51
hey hey whats with the african talk. i am a staunch aresenal supporter and it would suck to see him go. but wenger always finda a way to replace players. im not worried at all.samwise1st June 19th, 2008 21:52
People should try to respect their player and see what they are doing for the club. How can one say that African plays can not be trusted or that they are not LOYAL! What is wrong with people? Ade is a good player and knows what h e wants, so to say that is recism and inresponsible. Is Flamini from Africa or Celeb, what of Henry, NOT TO MENTION OUR FORMER MIDFIELD GENERAL partrickTontodonati June 19th, 2008 23:35
