Crystal Palace have signed free agent Emmanuel Adebayor, the club have confirmed.

The Togo international was released by Tottenham in September and has been without a club since, but has now signed a deal with the Eagles until the end of the season.

The 31-year-old Togo striker was a free agent having been released by Tottenham in September but has agreed a deal at Selhurst Park until the end of the current campaign.

Palace have not scored in the league since beating Stoke 2-1 on December 19, a run of five Premier League games that includes three successive defeats, and Adebayor has been brought in to help address that profligacy.
