Emmanuel Adebayor has responded to critics, making clear that he did not bring the coronavirus to Togo and also that he won't be donating any money.

While many other footballing stars have made donations in their native countries, the nations where they play or even elsewhere, Adebayor won't be following suit.

"For those who say that I don't donate, leave me in peace," he said in a Facebook Live video.

"I do what I want and how I want.

"Then there will be people who say I don't donate.
