Nicklas Bendtner has been arrested after a violent scuffle involving a taxi driver.

The former Arsenal striker found himself in a fight with a driver from Dantaxi in Copenhagen on Sunday night.

Press Association

According to the Danish newspaper BT, the incident was first brought to Copenhagen Police's attention on Sunday night.

"I can confirm that there has been a serious assault on one of our drivers tonight," Dantaxi's Rasmus Krochin told BT (via a rough translation).

"The driver is currently on the operating table with a broken jaw. Our director was informed about [it] this morning."

Copenhagen Police security chief Carsten Reenberg added: "We have had a report about violence against a rental car. I can not tell you any more."

One Reddit user wrote: "Can't really support a guy like that even if he was on my team. Should be put in jail, TBH. If he gets off just because he is rich, it's a big f**king slap to all the taxi drivers of that company."

Another user said: "Danish football in the headlines for all the wrong reasons this past week."




Bendtner left the Gunners in 2014 after a nine-year stint with the club. He signed for Rosenborg last year.
