Bendtner plays upfront for Rosenborg alongside the Nigerian who joined the team from fellow Norwegian side Viking for a fee in the region of €1.5m.
Adegbenro wasted no time in settling into his new surroundings as he scored three goals in back to back Europa League game against Ajax Amsterdam to send the Dutch side packing from the tournament despite playing a combined total of 45 minutes in both legs.
Domestically he has scored six goals and providerd four assists and according to Bendtner, the 22 year old Nigerian is in his list of players who are good enough to play for one of the top teams he has played for which includes Arsenal, Juventus and German side Wolfsburg .
The Nigerian has been roundly scouted by teams in England and Germany, but Bendtner believes his style is more suited to the pace and demands of the English Premier League.
” Samuel (Adegbenro) can fit into some of the top teams have played for, maybe better more at Arsenal because he looks like someone who is suited to the style of play of the English Premier League “, Bendtner was quoted as saying by the media in Denmark.
