Olimpia makes a big bet on Emmanuel Adebayor
Monaco, one of the former clubs of the newly signed player of Para Uno, shared a video in their profile on Twitter this Thursday to ask a question to the followers of the four-time champion.
"Today's #TBT comes with a question for the fans of the Paraguayan Decano. Is Olimpia ready to celebrate goals like this one from Emmanuel Adebayor?" exclaimed in a post in which the video of one of the attacker's 26 goals with the Monaco jersey was added.
Olimpia shook the national and international market with the great investment in the Togolese attacker, 35 years old, who will wear the azabache stripe for a whole season.
On Friday, February 7, Marco Trovato called a press conference in which he promised the signing of the African if 20,000 new members join the club within 48 hours, in an evident marketing move since the negotiation with the athlete was already closed.
"I want to challenge the Olimpista people to add 20,000 members in a weekend so that we can materialize this reinforcement of hierarchy," said the president of the Franjeado at that time.
Adebayor is one of the most important forwards in world football in the last decade. He shared the field with figures like Thierry Henry and Freddie Ljungberg (Arsenal), Carlos Tevez, Robinho, and Roque Santa Cruz (Manchester City), Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema (Real Madrid), being coached by Arsene Wenger, Roberto Mancini, and José Mourinho.
He has played for nine clubs in Europe, competing in leagues in France, England, Spain, and Turkey. This Friday, at night, he will be presented at the Manuel Ferreira wearing the Olimpia jersey.
