Milan have been after the player for a while and they were impressed when Adebayor played against them in the Champions League earlier this year.

The Rossoneri have been linked with the Gunner’s hit-man and it seems as if they are favourites to sign him even though Arsenal are playing hardball.

These reports surfaced last week, but were dismissed by both the player and Arsene Wenger, who had some harsh words for Milan. However, the Rossoneri have not backed down, at least if Sky Sport Italia are to be believed.

Adriano Galliani met with Adebayor’s agent Stephane Courbis on Tuesday night and it seems as if Milan have reached an agreement over the player’s personal terms as they try and tempt him to dance and jig all the way to San Siro.

Milan will now have to make a formal request to Arsenal to try and prize the hit-man away from the Emirates stadium and reports suggest Milan are willing to offer €30m.

Galliani already managed to take Mathieu Flamini from the Gunners and it is likely that he will do the same with Adebayor.

Adebayor recently revealed that Arsenal should increase wages and give players what they want.

However, the club’s reluctance to do this has seen a few players leave, Flamini and Alexander Hleb are such examples and Adebayor could follow suit.
