Mauricio Pochettino is ready to dump Emmanuel Adebayor in January.

The Tottenham boss is desperate to shake up his strike force and misfiring Adebayor is set to be offloaded.

It comes just days after the Togo star accused Spurs fans of creating a bad atmosphere at White Hart Lane and he is also struggling badly for form.

Adebayor, 30, has got 18 months left on his £170,000-a-week contract and the biggest problem could be finding another club to take him off their hands.

But Spurs are open to offers for the striker as his White Hart Lane career has turned sour, especially following the comments he made in the aftermath of the home defeat to Stoke.

Pochettino has picked Adebayor regularly this season despite some poor displays but it would seem Harry Kane and Roberto Soldado may get more chances now.

The Argentine wants to raid former club Southampton for forward Jay Rodriguez, 25, and Spurs may have to sell before they can buy to land the England man.
