Arsenal outcast Bendtner offered escape route by Hull as boss Bruce looks to bolster attacking options
Nicklas Bendtner is being offered an escape route from Arsenal by newly-promoted Hull City.
Tigers chief Steve Bruce had the Gunners striker on loan for a season when he was in charge of Birmingham City.
Bendtner, 25, spent the 2006/07 season at St Andrews when Bruce's side were chasing promotion from the Championship.
Now Bruce wants the striker, who once boasted he would be the best player in the world, to join him at the KC Stadium.
Arsenal are so desperate to offload the Denmark international forward that they will pay up part of his contract as an incentive.
The Tigers will have to pay up to £3m for Bendtner, but Arsenal are desperate to get him out of the Emirates.
Hull will have to pay him more than £30,000 a week to make up the rest of the package, but Bruce wants him in his forward line.
Incredibly Bendtner spent last season on loan with Serie A side Juventus, but there is no room for him back in Turin.
He didn't score a goal for the Italians and was sent back to Arsenal at the end of the season after failing to make an impact.
Juve have just signed Carlo Tevez from Manchester City as they prepare for a dual assault in the league and Champions League next season.
