Nicklas Bendtner has today announced that he will change his squad number from 26 to 52. It’s a suprising number but Bendtner has said that he has his own reason for personally choosing this number.
Nicklas has also kindly offered to personally refund every Arsenal fan that bought the “Bendtner 26” shirt. He said “Before it starts I wanted to change my squad number from 26 which I’ve obviously had for a number of seasons now. I chose to move to 52 because it’s a special number to me personally, and I hope that it brings me good luck for the new season.”
