Emmanuel Adebayor have threatened to quit Manchester City if big-spending manager Roberto Mancini doesn’t play him regularly this season.
Adebayor had been left on the bench for City’s opening two league matches this season before returning to the team for Thursday’s Europa League victory against Timisoara.
The former Arsenal star may be back among the substitutes when City travel to Sunderland on Sunday, especially if new signing Mario Balotelli recovers from a knee injury.
Adebayor is not ready to be consigned to a bit-part role for the rest of the campaign and is willing to consider a transfer if the right club comes in for him.
Craig Bellamy has already moved to Cardiff on loan after losing his place, while Robinho and Roque Santa Cruz also look set to leave as Mancini’s spending spree forces out a host of big-name players.
Emmanuel Adebayor will not regret stamping on his former Arsenal teammate Robin van Persie because he did not intend to hurt him.
The Football Association have hit Adebayor with a three-match ban for violent conduct following an incident in Manchester City‘s 4-2 win over Arsenal last weekend.
The Togo international caught Van Persie in the head during the second half, but continues to protest his innocence by stressing he did not intend to hurt his ex-strike partner.
“I am sorry Robin got hurt, but I can’t regret something I did not mean to do,” Adebayor told The Sun.
“Anybody who knows me knows I would not set out to hurt anybody and I would especially not mean to hurt an old team-mate.
“I really am glad Robin was OK because I know my stud was close to his eye, but there was really nothing I could have done – there was no way I could have got out of the way in time.”
