JAKARTA - Nicklas Bendtner claims footballers have a habit of 'snacking' before playing. For him, it is common.
The former Arsenal player has had a wild career off the pitch, involving sex work and extortion. On the other hand, his actions on the field failed.
In his recently published biography, Both Sides , Bentdner tells of many extremes. One of them is how common the use of sex workers is among his teammates.
He claims hiring prostitutes is much safer than bringing home women, whom he calls 'gold diggers'.
"It (prostitutes) is less risky compared to picking up girls while out of town," Bendtner said as quoted by the Daily Star , Wednesday, October 14.
"And if you are prone to infidelity - I've read, this applies to 46 percent of Danes - you hardly dare do that with 'civilians' anymore.
“Not when you become a famous footballer. I know about many incidents involving prostitutes. But I know a lot of stories about blackmail through social media. "
Bendtner is referring to the 'gold digger' of the night world who is ready to make love and then take photos of his clients sleeping.
"With the photos as their trump card, they're going to blackmail us into keeping their mouths shut," Bendtner said.
"So yes, I have witnessed it firsthand (my team mates hired prostitutes). Even the day before the game when the team gathered at the hotel somewhere be damned," he said.
Bendtner now plays in the Danish fourth division for Tarnby FF, where he started life as a footballer before moving to Arsenal, after being released from Copenhagen last year.
