West Brom Transfers: 5 Replacements For Retiring Nicolas Anelka

3. Emmanuel Adebayor

Tottenham's Emmanuel Adebayor could be available this summer following the big spending spree enjoyed by manager Andre Villas-Boas that has taken it the arrival of Roberto Soldado from Valencia for a club-record fee. While the new boy has been banging in the goals for Spurs, scoring in each of the Londoner's first two game of the season, Adebayor has been left on the sidelines looking on, yet to make an appearance. And with Zenit St-Petersburg's Hulk and Roma striker Erik Lamela tipped to move to Tottenham this summer, it is difficult to see a future for the 29-year-old. That could play into West Brom's hands nicely and the capture of the former Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid ace would be seen as just as big of a coup as the capturing of Anelka was last month. Spurs have been trying to offload Adebayor without success for much of the summer.
