    Adebayor: I'll Play Like Henry When I'm Paid Like Henry

    [​IMG]

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>It was revealed earlier this week that Adebayor is demanding a whopping 400 per cent pay-rise, which would see his weekly wage increase from ₤30,000 to ₤120,000.

    The Togolese striker has rejected the Gunners’ ₤60,000 compromise and appears to be edging ever close to an Emirates exit this summer, as the higher-ups are losing patience.

    The 24-year-old believes he deserves to be paid as much as former team-mate Henry was, insisting it is a logical quandary as much as anything.

    “People ask if I’m asking for the same salary as Henry,” he told News of the World. “That is not necessarily the question.

    “But I am being considered a worthy replacement for Henry while not deserving his salary. The question lies on this level.

    “Either Arsenal give me what I want and I stay or they don’t and I leave.”

    Barca Bound?

    AC Milan and Barcelona are both hot on Adebayor’s heels, and it believed they would have to pay over ₤30million to snare their man.

    Barca have taken the biggest strides so far, having sent officials to London recently to open negotiations.

    It was originally thought the former Monaco man would prefer a move to San Siro to link up with ex-Gunner Mathieu Flamini, but he hinted that Camp Nou in fact holds the greater attraction.

    “Milan are a big club but the fact they are not playing in the Champions League next season is less of a challenge,” Adebayor said.

    “Barcelona have made a good financial offer. Yes, I am still under contract to Arsenal but it’s up to the directors to satisfy my demands. Otherwise, I’ll leave.

    “You have to take advantage of the moment. Why not go to Barcelona if the manager there already has me in his plans? That means there is a big chance of seeing me there.”</div>

    I'll say it one more time:

    If he's leaving for more than 25M, then good riddance.

    Maybe you'll belive this

    Okay... But that's a totally different story, Wolf. We already knew that his future was undecided.

    I just saw the same on skysports....I think its true. I agree with Main event, anything higher than 25M is good buissness, he can take his ego somewhere else.

    More money means more chance of scoring Huntelaar or Villa.
