Bendtner watched Copenhagen give up a lead at Parken, the club’s home ground, to draw 1-1 with Randers and it has kicked the gossip into overdrive as many touted him to join the club in a bid to resurrect his career.

However, Copenhagen director Anders Horsholt pound cold water on that theory when he was asked if they would be making a move for the hapless 26-year-old.

“We are not talking about that,” Horsholt told reporters.

“He (Bendtner) is in town and is an old Copenhagen boy, who during his childhood days (attended games at Parken). He wanted to see some football, it isn’t anything more than that.

“Unfortunately we couldn’t give him a win.”

Bendtner has played just nine games for the Gunners this season and has been widely tipped to make an exit from the club at the end of the campaign.

He admitted last year that he could be tempted to make a return to his hometown club at some point in the near future.

“I like the idea of finishing at FC Copenhagen and try the Superliga at the end of my career,” he said.
