Nicklas "Lord" Bendtner (born January 16, 1988 in Copenhagen ) is a Danish football player . The striker was most recently under contract with the Norwegian first division club Rosenborg Trondheim and was active for the Danish national team .

Club career

Bendtner began his career in 1998 at B.93 Copenhagen and in 2002 moved to Kjøbenhavns Boldklub , for which he played until the end of the 2002/03 season. After the merger of the Kjøbenhavns Boldklub with the Boldklub in 1903 to form FC Copenhagen , he joined the second team there.

From Copenhagen he moved to Arsenal in June 2005 at the age of 17, where he initially played in the youth team and later mostly in the second team .

At the beginning of the 2006/07 season he was loaned from Arsenal to the second division club Birmingham City and earned a regular place there. He scored eleven times in the season in 42 games for Birmingham City and extended his loan, which actually ended in winter 2006, to the end of the season.

Bendtner made his Champions League debut for Arsenal on October 23, 2007 in the game against Slavia Prague and scored the goal to make it 7-0. On March 9, 2010, he became the first Dane ever to score a hat trick in the 5-0 Champions League second leg against FC Porto . In the years that followed, Bendtner commuted between his regular seat and substitute bench. For the 2011/12 season , Bendtner was loaned to AFC Sunderland . In August 2012 he was awarded for one year in Serie A at Juventus Turin ; Juventus had a purchase option for Bendtner. With the northern Italians he could not prevail and came to only nine missions. He returned to Arsenal for the 2013/14 season. Here he did not get beyond the reserve role and came in the Champions League to two appearances in the group stage. In the Premier League, he scored his only goals this season against Hull City and Cardiff City . He played his last game for Arsenal on February 2, 2014 in a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace FC when he came on for Olivier Giroud in the 84th minute . His contract ran until the end of the season.

On August 15, 2014, Bendtner was signed by the German Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg . He signed a contract that ran until June 30, 2017. At VfL he could never really gain a foothold, which he himself attributed, among other things, to his bad relationship with coach Dieter Hecking . On April 25, 2016, the contract between Bendtner and VfL Wolfsburg was canceled with immediate effect.

At the beginning of September 2016, the English second division team Nottingham Forest Bendtner signed on a two-year contract basis. Just six months later he changed clubs again and joined Rosenborg Trondheim from the Norwegian first division . With Rosenborg, Bendtner won the Norwegian championship in 2017 . He was also the top scorer in the Elite Series with 19 goals in 29 games. In the summer of 2019, Bendtner switched to FC Copenhagen on loan .

Bendtner made his debut in the Danish senior team on August 16, 2006 against Poland . Previously, he had participated with the Danish U-21 team in the 2006 European Championship in Portugal , where they were eliminated in the group round. In qualifying for the 2010 World Cup , he was used in nine out of ten games and scored three goals. This made him the second best goalscorer of his team behind Søren Larsen . His goal to make it 1-0 (final score 1-1) against Portugal in September 2009 at the Danish national stadium was voted Denmark's Goal of the Year.

At the World Cup finals in South Africa , he was eliminated with Denmark in the preliminary round. Here he played all three games and scored one goal. Bendtner and his team were eliminated in the preliminary round at the 2012 European Championship after scoring two goals in three games. At this tournament, he caused a sensation when, while cheering after his goal against Portugal, he pulled up his jersey and exposed his underwear, on which the writing of an Irish betting company could be read. As UEFA forbids players from advertising at the European Championship, the striker was banned from playing one game and fined € 100,000.

On May 14, 2018, Bendtner was appointed to the provisional squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia . Due to an injury he was not nominated for the final World Cup squad.

Private

Nicklas Bendtner is nicknamed Lord Bendtner . This was created during his relationship with the model and former baroness Caroline Fleming from 2009 to 2011 . They have a son who was born on December 16, 2010.

On the night of March 2nd to 3rd, 2013, Bendtner was arrested by the police in Copenhagen after an alcohol drive. He was sentenced to a fine of the equivalent of 113,000 euros and a three-year driving ban. The Danish Football Association then did not nominate Bendtner for six months for the national team .

In November 2018, Bendtner was sentenced to 50 days in prison after breaking the jaw of a taxi driver in Copenhagen in September. From January 3, 2019, the footballer had to wear an ankle bracelet, as his lawyer announced in December.
