| Manolito Adebayor |
Real Madrid holds a purchase option at the end of his assignment by 17 million euros.This figure is the great advantage of Adebayor over other options that white club management is considering; Sergio Agüero and Fernando Llorente. Athletic striker would leave San Mames only for 36 million euros, more than twice, as long as the Basque club does not require the transfer tax. The Atletico's Argentine would rise to 45 million.
The Togolese good start at Real Madrid was cut short when he cut his dreadlocks. On March 7, a day after his last goal in the League, he changed his look. And without dreadlocks the goals dried up. The issue was cause for concern for Adebayor, who felt, in every game without score a goal, that his continuance in the Bernabeu walked away. So the anger with which he held his two goals against Tottenham and the wink that made to the Real Madrid fans for claim himself.
Since his debut in Pamplona on January 30, Adebayor adds five goals; two in League, one in Spanish Cup and two in the Champions League, in 14 games, half of them as starter.
Real Madrid will exercise its purchase option during the first week of July, but Adebayor has only two months of competition for show Mourinho that he is the striker for white team. Otherwise, 'Manolito' will be Emmanuel and will return to England, Manchester City.
