Adebayor: I considered suicide

“I kept these stories for years. But if I die, no-one would know my story, no-one would learn from it."

Emmanuel Adebayor has revealed he contemplated suicide “many times” over a family feud which he claimed culminated in a knife being held to his throat by one of his brothers.

Adebayor has published a third lengthy post on his Facebook account in order, he says, to respond to claims made by some of his siblings through their own social media channels.
