Maverick Tottenham forward Emmanuel Adebayor has insisted that he is happy to stay and fight for his place at White Hart Lane and rejected reports linking him with a move away . Taking to Twitter on Tuesday night , the 31-year-old Togo international expressed his gratitude at being able to play in the Premier League and labeled the division 'the best in the world .

This season , he has made just 16 appearances in all competitions , scoring only twice and has been criticised for several underwhelming performances , in particular his showing against League One 's Sheffield United in the Capital One Cup semi-final . Yet , the former Arsenal , Real Madrid and Manchester City hitman remains adamant that he will see out the remainder of his contract in north London . Adebayor 's last Premier League goal for Spurs came during a 1-2 defeat by Newcastle back in October last year . Adebayor has made just 10 appearances in all competitions this season and scored only twice . Adebayor might be deemed surplus to requirements due to the breakthrough of homegrown star Harry Kane .
