EMMANUEL Adebayor's future at Arsenal – and a possible move to AC Milan or Barcelona – looks set to be decided next week.
Adebayor and Gunners manager Arsene Wenger have been in Austria this week for the latter stages of Euro 2008 but the pair have not spoken yet, with discussions due next week.
"I have a three-year contract with Arsenal but I have a lot of clubs in
terested in me," said Adebayor. "At the moment we are just going to sit down and talk next week and decide what to do."
When asked if he could still go to Milan, he said: "We will decide next week."
There were mixed messages from the 24-year-old Togo striker when he attended a function for manufacturers, adidas.
He did insist at a press conference, "I'm staying at Arsenal", but then told broadcasters his future will be decided next week on his return to London.
Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf believes Adebayor has already made up his mind.
He said: "When I spoke with him I said 'I'm waiting for you'. He already said he would come, but it depends now on Arsenal. If he leaves Arsenal, it's a done deal. He comes to Milan."
Meanwhile, Former France defender Lilian Thuram has a heart problem that will delay a move to Paris Saint-Germain and could end his career.
Paul Le Guen was keen to sign the 36-year-old player from Barcelona. But Thuram said pre-transfer medical tests found he has an enlarged heart.
