Crystal Palace have signed free agent Emmanuel Adebayor, the club have confirmed.
The Togo international was released by Tottenham in September and has been without a club since, but has now signed a deal with the Eagles until the end of the season.
Palace boss Alan Pardew has made clear his desire to sign a striker this month and the club have also been linked with the likes of Nicklas Bendtner, Loic Remy and Emmanuel Emenike.
Palace only goal in their last six Premier League games was an own goal scored by Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen on Saturday.
Adebayor was reportedly close to joining Aston Villa in the summer but was eventually let go by Spurs having failed to find a new club, and has not played since May 3 of last year.
The former Arsenal and Real Madrid player will wear the No.25 shirt at Selhurst Park.
