Adebayor: ‘I have full respect for all my former clubs’

Matt Stead

Emmanuel Adebayor has denied making inflammatory comments regarding Tomas Rosicky.

Adebayor went too bloody far earlier this week by questioning the fitness of former Arsenal teammate Rosicky.

The striker told French magazine So Foot that “if you said as much as ‘how are you’ to him, he would then be injured for two-and-a-half months”.

But the Togo international has now denied making those comments, questioning Goal.com for their reporting of the story.

In response, Goal posted an image of the interview in question in So Foot magazine, proving that they were simply translating quotes, and asking whether the interview was legitimate.

Adebayor has not responded.
