Adebayor in sights of 'important team'
Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor is being tracked by a "very important team" according to his agent.
Tabloid speculation has claimed the Gunners have offered Adebayor to both AC and Inter Milan in an attempt to prevent the Togo ace joining Chelsea.
The former tried to sign Adebayor last summer and former Rossoneri coach Carlo Ancelotti's move to Chelsea has prompted rumours the forward could also head to Stamford Bridge.
Manchester United have also been linked with a bid, but the player's agent Stephane Courbis says Arsenal's domestic rivals have not been in touch.
"As of today, I have not even got evidence to speak of presumed interest from Chelsea and Manchester United," Courbis told calciomercato.it.
"It's a given fact that Carlo Ancelotti likes the player seeing that last year he tried to sign him for Milan, although Chelsea have not contacted us.
"We have not received any calls, not from Milan or Ancelotti. Another team has contacted us, but I cannot say anything, it's a very important team."
Courbis also confirmed there has been no meeting with Milan and is confident Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is not looking to cash in on the £25million-rated former Monaco man.
He added: "There has not been any meeting with Milan for Adebayor and lately I have not received a call on their behalf.
"This doesn't mean Ade is for sale to resolve Arsenal's economic problems. I spoke with Arsene Wenger this morning and he told me nothing of the kind."
