A
lot of people have family issues...most don't go on the internet to
expose themselves like footballer Emmanuel Adebayor did. That action
seems to have repercussions because not only has his football club
Tottemham given him compassionate leave to go sort himself out, he has
now been dropped as captain of Togolese national football team.
The
captaincy of the former African Footballer of the Year was revoked by
Togo manager Tom Saintfiet on the morning of their opening Africa Cup of
Nations qualifier against Liberia. Despite scoring at the match and
helping them win, his captaincy has not been returned. Reacting,
Emmanuel Adebayor said he is not sure of his future in the national team
and says he may not play in the next match which is in September
'For now, I don't know if I'll play in September - I'll be here and I'll talk with the coach. I need to know whether he really needs me in the team or not. I have been the captain for seven or eight years and then one morning I'm told I won't be the captain - that means that we can go to Djibouti and he will put me in the stands." he said
