Nicklas Bendtner 1/2 to join Aston Villa this summer

Competition: Premier League
Market: Bendtner to join Aston Villa
Odds: 1/2 @ 888 Sport

Former Arsenal and Juventus striker Nicklas Bendtner, currently a free agent, has been linked with a move to Aston Villa, with the Midlands club having cut their budget due to owner Randy Lerner having put the side up for sale this summer.

Bendtner was released by Arsenal after his contract expired, but he’s failed to reach his potential in the Premier League, and a spell of loan moves to different sides have failed to unlock his true ability.

The 26-year-old scored two goals for the Gunners last season in nine Premier League games. A Danish international, Bendtner’s international form has been very impressive, with him having scored 24 goals in 58 games. But for his club, the striker has had failed loan spells with Birmingham City, Sunderland and Juventus.

Aston Villa have been procuring a number of free transfers due to their modest budget, and Bendtner has been made a target, despite the club having Christian Benteke, Libor Kozak, Andreas Weimann and Gabriel Agbonlahor as attacking options.

Nevertheless, 888 Sport are giving odds of 1/2 for Villa to sign the out cast this summer
