Do you want to sign Adebayor and his ‘golden genes’?

Emmanuel Adebayor is hoping that his performances during the Africa Cup of Nations can earn him another Premier League move.

Adebayor, who finds his “bad reputation” in England inexplicable, believes that scoring zero goals in 269 minutes for Togo during this winter’s tournament proves he is still capable at the highest level.

Togo were knocked out of AFCON after losing two and drawing one of their group games, and Adebayor, who left Crystal Palace in the summer and has been without a club since, expects that his “golden genes” will generate plenty of interest.

“I am confident that I can still play at that level,” he told FIFA’s official website. “I am blessed with golden genes. Physically, I would certainly be able to handle the pressure.

“I am the one who makes jokes when it is necessary, but I can also put my foot down if serious work is required.

“I didn’t come here to search for a club. I came here to play and represent my country and I think I’ve done that quite well.

“Now we are out, I am just going home and I’ll call my manager and see if there are some clubs that are interested in me. Let’s take it step-by-step and see how it goes.

“You know how much I love the Premier League even though I am not the most-loved player in England. I have done it for the last ten years in the Premier League.”

Togo manager Claude Le Roy insists that the striker has proven he can perform at the top level.

“It’s unbelievable what he did during these eight days. Three games in a row at this level without any game for eight months,” the coach, 68, said.

“We trained every morning with him for four-and-a-half weeks in Lome before the tournament. At 7:30, 8am, he was there with all my staff.

“I’m sure that if he is coming back in a club he will be great in the next few months because he showed everybody that he was at the level.”
