If rumours are to be believed then former Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner, who is currently without a club, can face the Gunners this season.
The Denmark international is now a free agent after Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg released him towards the end of last season due to disciplinary issues and the striker is yet to sign for a club. And some reports suggest that the striker is in advanced talks with Championship club Nottingham Forest and can make a return to English football.
The rumour has excited the Arsenal fans as they will get a chance to see Lord Bendtner, as he is affectionately called, in action once again as the North London club will lock horns against Forest in the League Cup third round in a fortnight.
The fans took to Twitter to express their excitement.
Here are some of the best tweets:
All hail Lord Bendtner's return the UK, maybe ?? https://t.co/EcJqHhY4UA

Never say never… After 3 weeks of hard negotiations, there's a very strong possibility for Nicklas Bendtner to be the last #nffc signing.

Bendtner's career record looks decent, but he obviously has a bad reputation off the field. Explains why he has no club. #nffc

If nothing else Bendtner provides comedy value. Underachieved but obv at higher level than champ #nffc
