I won't reveal my sources but he has held talks today with nffc and been given the guided tour of the ground and facilities. Some may think he's a bad apple but I think he could be a very effective player in the championship capable of scoring plenty of goals and acting as a foil for Britt if the desire is still there.
I'll believe it when I see it.
Couple of people this morning on twitter said they saw him in Nottingham.
Free agent , Worth a gamble for a year or two.
Well he wouldn't have to go far to toke up.
„I believe in socialism because it seems more humanitarian, rather than every man for himself and 'I'm alright jack' and all those arsehole businessmen with all the loot. I made up my mind from viewing society from that angle. That's where I'm from and there's where I've made my decisions from. That's why I believe in socialism“
„Don't forget you're alive. 'Cause sometimes when you walk around the city and you're in a bad mood, you can think, hey, wait a minute, we're alive! We don't know what the next second will bring and what a fantastic thing this is. This can get easily forgotten in the routine of life, and that's something I'm trying to bring to my attention at all times. Don't forget you're alive. We're not dead, you know. This is the greatest thing.”

Would be interesting, but fear his time maybe passed when we failed to bring in Maradona as head coach. Could have seen them striking a good understanding in a ludicrous pub suggestion Forest side.
No brainer for me, assuming his wage demands are realistic, he could do some damage at Championship level.
Hope this comes off.
As long as he doesn't expect stupid money, gets his head down and stops acting like a meme I'm all for it, there's a good striker underneath all the shite.
The Greek has confirmed..
FFS, man bun ahoy. This stinks of Fawaz trying to buy popularity with our supporters and seems totally at odds with all our business so far this season.
He even has the Fawaz issue big contract hat on

Personally think Bendtner has always had a harsh deal. Something I always admired about him was that he would get himself in the right place again and again. Has good technique too.
It's all about his motivation. If he's eager to come here and get his career started again, he could be a fantastic signing. I'm feeling positive about this one personally.
Maybe he can do an "Andy Reid" no, not get broken! But Andy learned from his earlier youngster mishaps and became a better player towards the end of his time with us after his growing up years, a wiser head might be to our advantage??
Given that we have to resort to free agents if we want a striker, I suppose beggars can't be choosers.
Hopefully if he comes we won't be paying him stupid wages.
A short term deal until January would be best for both parties; gives us an additional striker until the transfer window opens again and would give Bendtner the chance to put himself in the shop window.
I just put the old research hat on and according to Soccerbase he scored 9 goals in 11 starts (+36 substitute appearances) for Wolfsburg, which is relatively good. You have to wonder why they terminated him though
This is the strongest indication yet:

Never say never... After 3 weeks of hard negotiations, there's a very strong possibility for Nicklas Bendtner to be the last #nffc signing.
He may be difficult to manage, but would much prefer him to Ravel Morrison.
