President John Evans Atta Mills on Thursday picked up the nomination forms to contest the flag bearer slot of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) with the message that “I know I am going to win.” President Mills, who is being challenged by former First lady Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings, said the campaign should be carried on in a clean manner. Speaking at the NDC headquarters where he was accompanied by a host of leading members of the party, he said many people had worked hard to make the NDC what it is.

For all the latest reports and transfer rumours, visit our dedicated section here.Emmanuel Adebayor will be sent back to his parent club Manchester City this summer as Real Madrid have no intention of signing him permanently.

The 27-year-old Togolese striker joined Jose Mourinho’s side during the winter transfer window after failing to secure regular football under Roberto Mancini, playing just 240 minutes in the Premier League this season before his switch.

Marca.com reports Madrid will decline the chance to exercise their option to buy him for a £14.2 million fee despite the player earning the confidence from Mourinho.

Los Blancos feel City are asking for too much money, and Adebayor’s age also appears to have made chiefs at the Bernabeu reluctant. On top of that, he commands a £5.3m per annum net salary.

Furthermore, Real Madrid would have to offer him at least a four-year deal to make the move worthwhile, which would equate to £21.3m in wages alone.

Adebayor has netted twice in 11 league appearances for Madrid and is believed to be a popular player within the club.
