According to MLS Transfers via Twitter, “Source: Nicklas Bendtner has fielded interest from Chicago Fire and New York Red Bulls.” The Danish forward is currently a free agent after his contract with Vfl Wolfsburg was terminated after last season. He has played for some of the best teams in Europe and is still only 28-years old.
After scoring only three goals in 31 appearances since 2014, Wolfsburg decided to cut ties with the Danish international. Bendtner has previously played for Arsenal, Birmingham City, Sunderland, and Juventus throughout his professional career. He could be an interesting designated player target for MLS teams.
