I’m off: Nicklas Bendtner has confirmed he’s leaving Arsenal (Picture: Getty)

Nicklas Bendtner says he will finally depart Arsenal within the next two weeks after holding talks with ‘five or six’ clubs over a transfer.

Bendtner, who has just a year left on his Gunners contract, was told he can leave the Emirates two years ago, but has been unable to secure a permanent deal.

The 25-year-old has since spent a year each at Sunderland and then Juventus on-loan, failing to impress on both occasions.

But Bendtner says he is finally set to head for pastures new, with a handful of clubs all desperate to snap him up.

‘I am talking with five or six clubs at the moment over a permanent transfer,’ said Bendtner.



‘Things are agreed with Arsenal and I will decide which club I sign for in the next two weeks.’

It’s thought that Bendtner has offers from Germany, France, Holland and Portugal, while Turkish outfit Besiktas announced last week they were considering moving for the player.

The Denmark international turned down a switch to Hamburg in January, telling the club they were not prestigious enough for him.

Arsenal will accept a nominal fee of around £3million for the player.
