Emmanuel Adebayor, “It’s not me who wanted to leave for money, it’s Arsenal that forced me to go”
Ex-Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor revealed it was Arsene Wenger who asked him to leave as the club was no longer in a position to satisfy his wage requests, adding that if it was for him, he would have stayed a Gunner.
Adebayor was quoted as saying by the Evening Standard:
I talked with the coach and he told me I was one of Arsenal's best-paid players, that the club was in the red, so maybe they wouldn't be able to pay me any more it would be better for me to go.
