"I am inspired by Adebayor's lifestyle"- Leicester City winger Fatawu Issahaku
LEICESTER, ENGLAND - JULY 16: Leicester City's new signing Abdul Fatawu 

Ghana winger Abdul Fatawu Issahaku has shared his admiration for Togo and Arsenal legend Emmanuel Adebayor. 

Adebayor officially hanged up his boots last year after an illustrious career, spanning over two decades.

Although, Issahaku did not witness most of Adebayor's prime days in the game, he picks a lot of inspiration from how Togolese icon carries himself around.

"Adebayor, he is one of the players who inspired me a lot and his lifestyle and how he plays and everything just kept me motivated," he told Afro Nallers.

The former Arsenal, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Crystal Palace star is one of the most revered players from Africa, and was named Player of the Year on the continent in 2008.

After football, Adebayor ventured into several businesses in his native, Togo, and owns one of the biggest farms in Lomé.

Meanwhile, Issahaku is recovering from an injury that has kept him out for most of the season.

He is expected to return to action next season when the Foxes feature in the English Championship.
