Nicklas Bendtner and Vito Mannone are edging closer to permanent moves away from Arsenal with the Dane claiming he’s talking to several clubs and the Italian goalkeeper open to staying on full-time at Hull City.
The duo were deemed surplus to requirements this season by Arsene Wenger, with both undertaking relatively successful loan spells away from the Emirates.
Confirming that he will wait until after the European Championships before deciding on his future, Bendtner is quoted as saying by Sky Sports:
“Yes, I have talked to other clubs. I have told all the clubs that I want to wait until after Euro 2012.
“We have got plenty of time to sort out the future.”
The Dane’s camp were making very similar noises last season, claiming even sides on the wrong side of Jupiter were interested in his universal talent, before he settled on an invitation from then Sunderland boss Steve Bruce… a man whose daughter he once boffed while on loan at Birmingham City.
Despite starting the season at the Emirates, and providing one of the season’s most tragi-comic moments after a failed kung-fu kick led to a goal for Olympiakos in a dead-rubber Champions League game, Mannone has never looked like usurping either Wojciech Szczesny or Lukas Fabianski.
Sent out on loan to Hull City for the second time in the New Year, the Academy graduate has thrived at the Tigers.
“I have made it clear how much I have enjoyed my time with Hull,” the Italian told the Hull Daily Mail.
“I love the fans and I love the club because they have given me such a great opportunity to play regular football.
“I feel as though I have been playing well this season and it would be a very good club to join but I still have a contract with Arsenal. It will be their decision too.”
It’s unlikely many, if any, Arsenal fans will shed a tear if the pair do finalise moves away. Good luck to them…
TGSTEL bonked steve bruce’s daughter?!?did she have a face for an arse like her old man?although i must Nikky B’s standards seem to have dropped significantly recently…
I have to move for the good of my career. Arsenal are just a too small club for me, and i have already stumbled out of every club in London with my pants down anyway, and am now barred from them. I shall try and find a club with many good nightclubs who do not mind me walking around with my trousers round my ankles, and so i am going to move to Bolton.

absolutly loved bendtner … but its great to see the deadwood being shifted out ! hopefully we can free up some room in the squad for some proper signings ! now, hopefully wenger can find a place to offload chamakh and co
Yea we are a selling club , Mannone, Squllaci , Chamack , Bendter and many more, please buy we also do buy one get one free on some deals e.g Almunia is available for free. Have a happy transfer market and don’t forget to fill in your loyalty cards. Thanks – Gunner
am i the only one tired of arsenal selling all of our best players, i mean come on, were going to sell the best striker in the whole bloody world, this is absolutely terrible for the club, what next, getting rid of squillaci? God.
please please leave and take chamakh, denilson,vela,theo,djourou,squilaci,diaby,arshavin,park,with you FFS!!!!!
why the hell does everyone hate djourou, he’s our fucking 4th choice centerback and is good enough to start on quite a few premier league teams
yeah, letts not forget to add RVP, gervinho SCZC,vermaelen,koscielny,Sagna,Song and chamberlain as well to your list
I can confirm that NB is indeed TGSTEL. The greatest shagger that ever lived. Crap in front of goal though
john terry begs to differ!
I can also confirm that I have a face like an arse
I too have a face like an arse
I have a face like a walrus
I have a face like a horsed faced cunt
I have a face you’d love to punch
I also lack a chin, as David Platt stole it.
my face gives out fart (or stupid comments) !!
I have a face like a shrivelled-up nut sack!
I have a face like an angry homeless man.
I wonder what the price tag will be on Bendtner. Check this link: pcstorage.org, you’ll like what it has to say.
I don’t like what you have to say.
Also, you fail at posting links.
Will never forget vitos game against fulham at their place a few years back. Some superb stuff, shame it wasn’t meant to be, he will go on to be a fine keeper.
I’ll always remember that comical error against olympiacos
Indeed goonero,I especially liked the one he saved with his face!! Good luck to Vito… but fuck Bendtner,he really is a king sized arse.
For all the saves against Fulham, I’ll remember the lack of saves against West Ham, where he let that popped-collar mouthbreather score against us to equalize.
but fuck bendtner?
She may have a face like a horses area, but it’s n/a since he made her wear a mask with his face on it
Actually, Amy Bruce is quite the looker… Very much the looker.
Nah! Burglars dog mate. Northern version of an Essex girl and trowelled on make-up to boot
Not my cup-of-chai..
*arse
I think we can get 8-10m for Bendtner. His goalscoring record is actually pretty good. He could have been a very good player for us if he put in the effort and didn’t think he was already the best. Who knows, maybe if he has a good Euro 2012, Wenger might decide to let him stay for one more year (unlikely) or sell him for a good fee. Same for Carlos Vela. The rest of the deadwood is harder to move on because they have hardly played and earn too much money. But this year we need to do what… Read more »
Vela won’t be in Euro 2012 but Wenger might give him another chance.
The Swiss beat Germany? I bet Sepp’s creaming his briefs over that one!
I wonder if he’s still against penalty shoot-outs now?
Thank God for the Euros. Bendtner sometimes scores for Denmark. In fact he’s scored already – against Brazil no less – so I suppose there’s a chance someone might give him a home. Just so long as it doesn’t make him big-headed and prone to making up rumours about Europe’s top clubs competing for his services, but I can’t imagine he’s the kind of player who’d ever do that.
Van Persie also scored. Podolski didn’t and was subbed against Switzerland who rather amazingly beat Germany 5-3.
an offside goal, which i figured if it wasn’t a friendly and them being down 3-0 it probably would’ve been called, but a goal nonetheless i guess
Still can’t understand why we signed a striker with ‘bent’ in his name…
Perhaps we can swap Bentdner for Sven Bender and no one will notice?

I hope he has a fantastic Euros and is a contender for the golden boot. Then perhaps we might get a club genuinely interested in buying him.
