    Tottenham star major doubt for Capital One Cup tie against Norwich

    Emmanuel Adebayor scores for Tottenham
     

    Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor is a major doubt for the Capital One Cup tie against Norwich on Wednesday night.

    Adebayor was hoping for a rare place in the starting XI after failing to begin a game under Andre Villas-Boas this season.

    But the former Arsenal and Manchester City forward was sent home from training on Monday morning with a stomach bug and is now facing a race against time to prove his fitness for the cup tie at Carrow Road.

    Tottenham assistant coach Steffen Freund said: "Adebayor came in sick and we need to see how he is tomorrow. I can’t say at the moment which team will travel but it will be a strong one."
