MOURINHO:"ADEBAYOR CLOSER TO MADRID "


Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho admitted he is closer to signing Emmanuel Adebayor than Neymar or Sergio Aguero.

The Portuguese has revealed his plans to bring a new attacker to the Bernabeu before the start of the season to compliment Cristiano Ronaldo and Gonzalo Higuain.

Two strikers who are heavily linked to the Los Blancos are Santos' Wonder-kid Neymar and Atletico Madrids' Aguero.

But Mourinho has admitted there's a stronger possibility he will sign Adebayor, who enjoyed a productive spell with Madrid on loan from Manchester City last season.

"Neymar is a Santos player, Aguero belongs to Atletico Madrid... Adebayor is at Manchester City, but perhaps he is closer because he was our player for six months," Mourinho said at a press conference.

"We should not be very distant from those names, but I am calm because we have a fantastic squad and we are in a very good situation."

Real Madrid kick-off their La Liga campaign at home to Athletic Bilbao on 21 August.
