Emmanuel Adebayor has urged Arsenal fans to move past his infamous celebration after scoring for Manchester City against them in 2009.
The Togolese forward made a £25million switch from the Gunners to City that summer as their rich Abu Dhabi owners started to spend big.
Adebayor was taunted by Arsenal fans when he played against them for City at the Etihad Stadium a few weeks into the following season. When he scored in City’s 4-2 win, the Togolese ran almost the full length of the pitch to celebrate with a knee-slide in front of the Gunners support.
He was pelted with objects, including a plastic stool, and was handed a £25,000 fine and a suspended two-match ban by the Football Association.
