Arsenal player Nicklas Bendtner has reportedly admitted that he wants to quit his club although he is unsure as to whether he would leave in January 2014 or at the end of the current season.
Although the Danish striker, who played on loan in Juventus and Sunderland, was linked with a permanent transfer to Crystal Palace, the move, however, fell through on transfer deadline day and Bendtner failed to score for Arsene Wenger's side in the seven appearances he has made since.
According to Metro.co.uk, Bendtner has reiterated his desire to quit the Premier League pacesetters after insisting in September 2011 that he would leave Arsenal, although he admitted that he would have to wait and see through the winter as a new challenge has a greater priority for him than money.
Bendtner further said that he has been playing football since he was four, adding that back then, he did it because of his love for the game.
Olivier Giroud is currently leading the Arsenal line by himself, but Arsenal has been linked with moves for several strikers when the transfer window reopens at the turn of the year, the report added.
