AC Milan's hopes of signing Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor this summer appear to be fading with the two clubs yet to agree a fee.

The 24-year-old is one of the main targets of the Rossoneri, along with Barcelona's Samuel Eto'o, as the club look to reinforce their forward line with a world-class frontman.

"They are both great forwards," said AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani. "But they could both remain where they are."

Galliani revealed Milan are unwilling to match what Arsenal are demanding for the Togo international, with reports suggesting the Gunners want 45million euros.

"I have had contact with (Arsenal manager Arsene) Wenger and right now we are divided on an important difference in terms of value of the player," Galliani added.
