Mixed messages from Adebayor

Emmanuel Adebayor's future at Arsenal - and a possible move to AC Milan or Barcelona - looks set to be decided next week.

Adebayor and Gunners boss Arsene Wenger have been in Austria this week for the latter stages of Euro 2008 but the pair have not spoken yet, with discussions due next week.

"I have three-year contract with Arsenal but I have a lot of clubs interested in me," said Adebayor on Sky Sports News.

He added: "At the moment we are just going to sit down and talk next week and decide what to do. At the moment I have a three-year contract at Arsenal and I have a lot of clubs interested in me."

When asked if he could still go to Milan, he said: "We will decide next week."

There were mixed messages from the 24-year-old Togo striker when he attended a function for manufacturers adidas.

He did insist at a press conference, "I'm staying at Arsenal", but then told broadcasters his future will be decided next week on his return to London.

Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf believes Adebayor has already made up his mind.

He told Setanta Sports News: "When I spoke with him I said 'I'm waiting for you'. Let's see what will happen.

"He already said he would come, but it depends now on Arsenal. If he leaves Arsenal, it's a done deal. He comes to Milan."
