Nottingham Forest complete the signing of former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner

Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner on a two-year contract.

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.

Bendtner becomes the 12th new arrival at the City Ground following the appointment of Philippe Montanier as head coach over the summer and he could go straight into the squad for the trip to Aston Villa on Sunday.

The Denmark international began his career at Arsenal and had loan spells at Birmingham, Sunderland and Juventus before switching to Wolfsburg in 2014.
