The former Arsenal and Manchester City is a free agent nad has been linked with a move to Crystal Palace in recent weeks.
Pardew said: “Adebayor is a player that is kind of there for somebody and it is a question of, like ourselves, looking at that one and wondering whether we’re the right club for him and he’s the right player for us.
“It’s something that’s in our mix and we’ll have to wait and see.
“We want to try and bring in a quality player so therefore you can’t dismiss anyone. We can’t not think about all the strikers who are possibly available.”
