Emmanuel Adebayor has confirmed that he will be participating in the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations (CAN 2013) with the Togo national team. After meeting twice with Faure Gnassingbé, the President of Togo, Adebayor discussed the state of Togolese football and the need for solutions to address its challenges. The football star expressed his commitment to contributing positively to Togolese football during the remaining years of his career.
When asked directly about his participation in CAN 2013, Adebayor responded that the decision is still somewhat uncertain as he needs to inform his club, Tottenham, about his choice. However, he emphasized his love for playing for Togo and his willingness to return to the national team. He mentioned that while Tottenham’s coach, Andre Villas-Boas, stated to the press that he wouldn’t oppose Adebayor’s participation in the tournament, there might be discussions behind the scenes with the club’s president, Daniel Levy.
Adebayor’s commitment to representing Togo in CAN 2013 reflects his passion for contributing to the improvement of Togolese football and making a positive impact on the sport in his home country.
