Nicklas Bendtner set to join Nottingham Forest as Former Arsenal striker agrees deal

Former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner is set for a return to English football after agreeing to join Nottingham Forest.

Bendtner held talks at the City Ground on Tuesday and has verbally agreed to sign for the Championship club, with the deal expected to be announced as early as Wednesday.

The 28-year-old has been a free agent since leaving German side Wolfsburg last season, enabling Forest to sign him outside of the transfer window, which closed last week.
