Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor opens up about his family dispute in a lengthy Facebook post.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor has accused his mother, brothers and sisters of treating him poorly throughout his career.

The 31-year-old, who was born in Togo, revealed that his mother showed no interest in hearing about the birth of his daughter, despite receiving a "great amount of money" from the striker over the years.

The former Arsenal and Manchester City forward also accused his siblings of renting out a property that he purchased for them without his knowledge.

In addition, Adebayor singles out his brother Kola, who he claims never turned up to the burial of their sibling Peter, despite the footballer sending him money to fund his travel.

On his official Facebook page, Adebayor wrote: "I have kept these stories for a long time but I think today it is worth sharing some of them with you. It's true that family matters should be solved internally and not in public but I am doing this so that hopefully all families can learn from what happened in mine. Also keep in mind that none of this is about money.

"I organized a meeting in 2005 to solve our family issues. When I asked them about their opinion, they said I should build each family member a house and give each of them a monthly wage. Today I am still alive and they have already shared all my goods, just in case I die.

"For all these reasons, it took very long for me to set up my foundation in Africa. Every time I try to help the people in need, they had to question me and all of them thought it was a bad idea."

Adebayor also accused his brother Rotimi of stealing 21 mobile phones from a French football academy that the Spurs player arranged for him to join.

In November last year, Adebayor accused his mother of practising black magic on him.
