The Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has confirmed the English football club is in talks with Manchester City over a loan move for 27-year-old striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
Adebayor fell out with Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini last year and spent a spell on loan at Real Madrid.
Spurs and City have been in talks for some time over a deal, with Adebayor's reported 336 thousand dollar a week wage packet proving to be the only real problem.
Tottenham are on the search for a new striker after selling Robbie Keane to LA Galaxy.
