Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner has strongly hinted that he intends to leave the Emirates stadium this summer.
The 24-year-old Denmark international, who will finish his loan spell with Sunderland on Sunday, is not expected to make his move to the North East permanent but he admits that he is ready for a change.
Speaking to Danish football magazine Tipsbladet, Bendtner said: "I am ready for new challenges. I have heard about concrete interest from other clubs, who sound interesting, but I can't say more than that right now.
"After all, I am still under contract with Arsenal, so I have to get back to Arsenal and talk to them first.
"On the specific matter of staying with Arsenal, I have to say I need something new to happen for me. There is no panic thinking about my future. Now, it's all about Euro 2012 for Denmark and afterwards I can look at my club future."
Bendtner has scored 22 goals in 99 Premier League appearances for the Gunners.
