Arsene Wenger could add another player to his squad later today.
The Arsenal manager signed Abou Diaby this morning and could complete a deal for Monaco striker Emmanuel Adebayor this afternoon.
The 21-year-old is currently at Monaco and is all set to start for Togo at the African Nations Cup. Wenger hopes to seal a deal before the player jets off to Egypt.
“We are looking at a striker called Adebayor,” said the manager at today’s press conference. “I think it could happen later today.
"He has qualities that we don’t have in the side. He is tall, good in the air and makes good runs. He is a bit of a Kanu type but he goes in more behind the defenders.
“There is good chance it will happen today. If something happens we will let you know.”
As ever, any announcement will be made via Arsenal.com.
