The striker Emmanuel Adebayor has stated that he sees himself within the ranks of the Turin club.

Lately, there has been a lot of talk about the future of the 26-year-old footballer, as Roberto Mancini, the coach of "Man City," does not give him many opportunities to shine.

Rumors have been circulating since the summer that the player will leave Manchester, with the "Juventus" club being named as one of the main favorites to acquire the striker.

"I would like to play in Italy and I see myself wearing white and black jerseys," the striker assured. "I spoke with Patrick Vieira, who told me many good things about 'Juventus.' I had the opportunity to move to Turin earlier, but back then it remained just talk."

"I'm not saying that my relationship with R. Mancini is bad, but I want to play. And if the Juventus leaders want me, why not."

Earlier, the "Man City" executives responded to these rumors by stating that Adebayor should stay with the team. However, according to reports in the press, the leaders of "Juventus" will try to attract either Adebayor or the striker Edin Dzeko from "Wolfsburg" as soon as January.
