Togo international, Emmanuel Adebayor has joined English premier League side, Crystal Palace on a free transfer until the end of the season.
The 31 year old former Arsenal striker was released on a mutual
consent by Tottenham Hotspur in September, after scoring a total of 94 Premier League goals for Spurs, Arsenal and Manchester City.
Adebayor's last appearance came on 3 May 2015, playing six minutes in Spurs's 1-0 home defeat by Man City.
Palace are hoping to improve their poor scoring performance, after being ranked among the three lowest scorers in the league with 24 goals in 23 games this season, and lie 11th in the table.
Strikers Fraizer Campbell, Dwight Gayle, Connor Wickham and Marouane Chamakh have managed just one league goal between them so far.
The Eagles have failed to win their past six games, losing their last four in a row, and Adebayor is the club's first signing of the transfer window.
Pardew made a failed attempt to sign the player in 2006 when he was in charge at West Ham.
Adebayor instead joined Arsenal from French club Monaco. He then went on to play for Manchester City followed by a loan spell at Real Madrid before joining Spurs in 2012. BBC
