Nicklas Bendtner could seal a surprise transfer to Newcastle United in the coming days, according to reports.

The former Arsenal striker has been told he can leave Bundesliga club Wolfsburg after struggling to hold down a regular place in the team.

And amid doubts about his fitness, Bild reports that agents are working on getting the player a move, and Newcastle are a real option.

Bendtner could make a move in the coming days with Wolfsburg looking for a quick deal for the 27-year-old ace.


Newcastle have been short on goals this term and while Bendtner endured a sketchy spell in England, he does bring waves of experience.
