Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has offered Denmark international striker Nicklas Bendtner a Gunners lifeline; and told him there may still be a chance for him to play in the first team.

Bendtner is valued by Arsenal in the region of 6m GBP, and earlier in the summer was linked with moves to a number of clubs, including Bolton, Borussia Dortmund and Stoke City.

However, the player has yet to make the move that he has requested.

Arsene Wenger said: "In his interview Bendtner said he was gone. But I checked, and he's not gone at all yet.

"I promised I'd let him go if he found the right club and that hasn't changed. When I make a promise, I keep it.

"But if he doesn't find the right opportunity, he'll stay and fight for his place like everybody else. He looks sharp in training."
