Bendtner extends stay

Nicklas Bendtner has agreed to extend his loan at Birmingham.

Nicklas Bendtner has agreed to extend his loan at Birmingham until the end of the season.

The Arsenal striker joined Steve Bruce's side on an initial four-month deal in August, but The Gunners have now confirmed the 18-year-old will stay at St Andrews until the summer.

The Danish Youth international has made a significant impact this season scoring ten goals in 24 appearances and helped City in their bid for an early return to the Premiership.

Bendtner is currently battling to regain his place in the City side after recovering from a sprained ankle picked up in the FA Cup draw with Newcastle earlier this month.
