Former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner has penned a two-year contract with Nottingham Forest, the club’s owner has announced.
The striker, who began his professional career at Arsenal, spent nine years at the club between 2005 and 2014, but struggled for first-team football and was shipped out on loan to Birmingham City, Sunderland and Juventus during that time.
Bendtner could be set for a return to the Emirates as Forest have been drawn at home to Arsenal in the EFL Cup later this month.
Forest owner and chairman Fawaz Al-Hasawi confirmed the striker’s arrival, saying on Twitter: “Please welcome Nicklas Bendtner who has joined #NFFC on a two-year deal.”
