NICKLAS BENDTNER’S girlfriend has branded the ex-Arsenal star “brainless” and “insane” – for planning to buy a £300,000 Rolls-Royce while unemployed.
Denmark international Bendtner has been a free agent since his hometown club FC Copenhagen showed him the door last December.
Nicklas Bendtner’s girlfriend called the footballer ‘brainless’ for planning to buy a £300,000 Rolls-Royce while unemployed
Bendtner recently flew to Germany to discuss a deal for a Rolls-Royce Black Badge Wraith
But that didn’t stop the 32-year-old flying to Germany to discuss a deal for a Rolls-Royce Black Badge Wraith – seen by many as the ultimate supercar.
Bendtner, who spent nine years with the Gunners, rows with girlfriend Philine Roepstorff in the reality show they present on Danish TV.
The striker says: “Philine thinks the purchase I want to make is brainless. I can understand her, as it is really a lot to spend on a car.
“But it has to hurt a bit to get the things you dream of. It is my own money, I have earned it, so I can spend it on what I want.”
Model Philine fumes: “He needs to understand he doesn’t actually have a job right now. It is some mega-fancy car that no one has in Denmark.
“He only wants it because he wants everything that people don’t have at home.
“I just gave up. I have nothing more to say.
“He has no sense of reality. It’s so insane.
“He just thinks if you want something, you can have it. It is because he has lived the way he has lived.”
Bendtner later changes his mind about buying the Roller while faced with the reality of the Covid-19 crisis.
He says: “This is because it is a very unstable market, and because I haven’t been able to sell all the stuff I want to sell.
“I think it is stupid to put so much money into something as unsafe as a car, that you know will lose value.”
Bendtner recently revealed he had lost £6million playing poker after getting hooked on the game while in London.
He appeared 171 times for Arsenal, scoring 45 goals, before leaving in 2014.
The frontman also played for Birmingham, Sunderland, Nottingham Forest, Juventus, Wolfsburg and Rosenborg.
