Adebayor's Milan Move Almost Done - Agent

Emmanuel Adebayor’s agent has revealed the striker’s proposed transfer from Arsenal to AC Milan is ‘80 per cent’ complete…
The Togolese hitman’s future has been the source of intense speculation over the past two months, and it has emerged recently that both Barcelona and Milan are vying for his signature.
Barca officials were in London earlier this month to kick off negotiations for both Adebayor and Aliaksandr Hleb, but the Gunners rebuffed their initial bid to see what the Rossoneri had to offer.
Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani confirmed recently that Adebayor is right at the top of the club’s shortlist, ahead of the likes of Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto’o.
It is believed the 24-year-old is eager to follow ex-Gunner Mathieu Flamini to San Siro, unless Arsenal meet his wage demands of ₤120,000-per-week.
And his agent Vincenzo Morabito said on Studio Sport: “Arsenal are looking for Adebayor’s replacement. Until that search is over, the negotiations won’t reach the final stage, but I am fairly optimistic.
“What are the chances of Adebayor coming to Milan? I’d say today we are between 70 and 80 per cent.”

Candidates

Arsene Wenger will buy before selling, as the Arsenal boss will have precious few forwards to call upon should Adebayor leave before his replacement arrives.
The former Monaco manager is reported to have his eye on Dani Guiza and David Villa, both part of the Spain squad that will battle Russia tonight for a place in the Euro 2008 final.
However, Roque Santa Cruz, Peter Crouch and Mario Gomez are all on the shortlist too.
"The names being talked about are Peter Crouch, Blackburn striker Roque Santa Cruz and Germany forward Mario Gomez," added Morabito.

The Frenchman will no doubt be watching the clash in Vienna with intense interest, as he has made no secret of his admiration for Russia striker Roman Pavlyuchenko.

Wenger hailed the 26-year-old’s work-rate and physical presence, making him an ideal candidate to fill Adebayor’s boots.
