Emmanuel Adebayor: No regrets over Manchester City departure

Adebayor: Man City was a headache

Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor has revealed that playing for Manchester City was a "headache".

The 27-year-old, who joined Spurs on a season-long loan from City in the summer, has insisted that despite the North West side's good form in the Premier League, he would not want to be part of their campaign.

"I wish them the best of luck, but do I wish to be part of that team right now? No," Adebayor told BBC Sport. "Whenever I woke up last year to go into training it was a headache.

"You want to be in a house where you feel comfortable. Even if the house is a palace, you want to be loved and you want to be happy."

The Togolese frontman has scored three goals for the North London side since joining in August.
