Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor: 'Off-field issues behind me'

Togo striker Emmanuel Adebayor doesn't want to leave Tottenham Hotspur this month and is certain that recent off-field issues are behind him.

Emmanuel Adebayor has insisted that his recent off-field troubles are behind him and that he has no intention of leaving Tottenham Hotspur this month.

The 30-year-old striker made his first appearance in over two months by coming off the bench in yesterday's 2-1 victory over Sunderland in the Premier League.

Adebayor hadn't played since November 9 following some minor injuries and family issues that included his mother reportedly practicing black magic on him.

Asked if the issues are now resolved, Adebayor told PA: "I don't know whether they are sorted out or not.

"But, for me, I've realised with my age that I just have to leave all these problems behind me and do what I love doing best, which is playing football.

"So, sorted out? I don't know. But behind me? Definitely, yes."

Turkish duo Galatasaray and Besiktas are said to be interested in signing Adebayor, who has scored two goals in nine Premier League starts this season.
