Emmanuel Adebayor is sent off for a KARATE KICK while playing for Paraguyan side Olimpia just a month after the Ex-Tottenham forward joined

Emmanuel Adebayor received his marching orders for new club Olimpia after he briefly swapped football for martial arts.

Adebayor, who played in the Premier League for over a decade, joined the 11th club of his career when he signed for Olimpia in February, and has since failed to find the back of the net.
