Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor is reportedly Milan’s top summer transfer target. The Rossoneri are widely expected to overhaul their squad following a dismal Series A campaign and failure to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. Coach Carlo Ancelotti - who has turned down the advances of managerless Chelsea - has also targeted Blues star Didier Drogba and Barcelona forward Samuel Eto’o as possible alternatives.
Speculation in the Italian press suggests that Ancelotti favors Adebayor, and the Togo international has already agreed to personal terms with Milan. Coincidentally, Adebayor, who scored 24 premier leagues this past season, netted against Milan in March as Arsenal mustered a superb 2-0 victory in the Champions League at the San Siro.
However, the Italian giants are sure to face stiff opposition from Arsenal after already signing French midfielder Mathieu Flamini from the London club last month. With Adebayor valued at $64 million by the Gunners, it is unlikely Arsene Wenger will allow his top marksman to leave without a fight.
