Sunderland boss David Moyes has said he was offered the chance to sign free agent Emmanuel Adebayor last month but is not currently considering a deal for the striker.
Adebayor, 32, remains available for transfer after leaving Crystal Palace in the summer and has been linked with a number of clubs, but Moyes said he is not interested in the former Arsenal and Tottenham player.
"We were offered Adebayor probably about four or five weeks ago," Moyes said. "I didn't do anything about it then and I don't expect to be doing anything about it just now unless something dramatically changes."
Adebayor had been expected to join Ligue 1 club Lyon but the move fell through.
He recently issued a statement to deny widely reported claims -- which had originated from a spoof website -- that he smoked and drank whisky during a meeting with the French club's coach.
