Emmanuel Adebayor Rant Part II: Accusses Brother Of Being A Thief by Mudley313: 10:57pm On May 18, 2015
In a follow up to ‘part one’ of a statement released on Facebook last week, in which he accused younger brother Rotimi of taking 21 mobile phones from a French football academy, Adebayor has now claimed Rotimi stole a shirt given to him by the late Marc-Vivien Foe, a signed jersey that belonged to Real Madrid legend Zinedine Zidane and a £25,000 Cartier necklace the former Arsenal star had bought for his mother.

Adebayor, who recently met up with Chelsea striker Didier Drogba to discuss his personal problems, wrote: “In 2002, I went to play the AFCON in Mali and I had the huge privilege to swap my shirt with Marc-Vivien Foé. May his soul rest in peace. When I got back to Togo, I put that shirt in a secure place. My brother found a way to steal that shirt and sold it.

“When I moved from Metz to Monaco, we reached an advanced stage in the Champions League and we played against Real Madrid. It was one of most beautiful days of my life because I was lucky enough to get a signed shirt from the football legend Zinedine Zidane. As I brought that shirt back to Togo, my brother still found a way to steal that shirt and sold it.

“When I was in Metz, I was earning about €15,000 a month. I wanted to get something unique for my mom to thank her for all she did for me. I wanted to make her happy. So I decided to take an amount worth three months of my wages and I bought her a Cartier neckless for about €45,000.

"Rotimi and his friends Akim(@Yam Freedom) and Tao (@Sao Tao Oyawole) made a plan and stole that precious neckless. They sold it for about €800. When my mom and I found out, my mother asked me not to bother because he is the younger brother. Despite the situation, I would like to take this same occasion to wish all the mothers out there a Happy Mother’s Day!”

...Adebayor’s increasingly bizarre behaviour is even worrying some of his closest friends and confidants.

Sources close to Adebayor, whose £100,000-a-week Tottenham contract still has a year to run, fear his repeated rants will put off any clubs who were thinking of entering into negotiations....over a potential transfer or loan deal.
