Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor says he isn't ready to return to England just yet.

The Togo captain has been given leave by the City following the gun attack on his team's coach in Angola last week. The striker has been left badly shaken after Togo's assistant manager, press officer and the bus driver were all killed.

Describing the incident as the "the worst in his life", Adebayor told Sky Sports:

"I am sweating every day, and every day God makes. At the moment I can't eat, I am losing weight. It is very difficult for everyone.

"I will take my time and come back on the pitch at the right time. My boss and my team understand that, that is the most important thing. They know I need time to recover from this.

"It is difficult because my personal press officer died in my hands, that is the worst image I have had in my life. He passed away in my hands. It is very difficult."
