He joined Monaco in 2003 and was part of the team that went all the way to the Champions League final before moving to the Gunners in January 2006.<\/p>\n<p>With Adebayor\u2019s loan at Madrid now over, he faces stiff competition for a starting place at City from the likes of Carlos Tevez, Edin Dzeko, Mario Balotelli, Jo and fellow loanees from last season Craig Bellamy and Roque Santa Cruz.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the original:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goal.com\/en-gb\/news\/2896\/premier-league\/2011\/06\/22\/2542594\/zenit-st-petersburg-look-to-bring-in-manchester-city-striker\" title=\"Zenit St. Petersburg look to bring in Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor - report\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zenit St. Petersburg look to bring in Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor &#8211; report<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> 22 Jun 2011 08:23:00 Emmanuel Adebayor, Real Madrid Related Links Teams Players For all the latest reports and transfer rumours, visit our dedicated section here .
