Bendtner, 36, was thrilled with the move as Copenhagen was a club close to his heart.
However, he was told by his agent that there had been a clause put in his contract which he has since described as “legendary”.
Speaking in a biographic documentary, Bentdner revealed that he was told that he would not be able to drink alcohol or ski.
His agent told him: “You must accept that it must be stated in the contract that from now until the New Year you must not drink alcohol and you must not ski and things like that.”
Bentdner was not deterred by the cluse as he insisted that he was “ready” for the club.
He texted the club: “I’m ready to play for you and give everything.”
He signed a four and a half month contract with the Superliga outfit as he had to prove his worth.
Bendtner has since spoken about the contract as he said: “I don’t think everyone has it in the contract.

“Damn legendary.”
Bendtner’s time at Copenhagen was not fruitful as he only made nine appearances for the club, scoring once.
The documentary, Nicklas Bendtner – The Portait, will be released as a series in three episodes on Viaplay with a premiere on February 12.
It has been produced as part of a collaboration with the author Rune Skyum-Nielsen, who is behind Bendtner’s biography, ‘Begge sider’.
Bendtner insisted that he wants to tell the “true story” of his life.
He said: “Many sports documentaries are just a big glossy picture.
“Then you hear about adultery on the side or an extra child, or I don’t know what the hell, and it never comes up.
“But then you never get the opportunity to really understand that person. Then it might as well be fiction.
“I want to tell the true story. It must be as it was.”
The Danish striker retired from football in 2021.
Nicklas Bendtner played for eight clubs during his senior club career scoring 117 goals
He endured an up-and-down career in which he burst into life during a loan spell at Birmingham City in 2006.
He helped the club earn promotion to the Premier League.
The striker returned to Arsenal and became a member in the first-team.
In 2010 he scored a Champions League hat-tick against Porto.
Two years later, he hit a low as he was banned and fined for his Paddy Power boxer stunt at Euro 2012.
In 2013, he became a Serie A champion, having won the league with Juventus during a loan spell.
While at Rosenburg, he discovered his best scoring form as he finished as the top scorer in the Eliteserien.
But in 2018 he was at his lowest as he was jailed for 50 days for assaulting a taxi driver in Copenhagen.
Here is a look at Bendtner’s career by numbers…
National team: 81 matches and 30 goals for Denmark – number eight on the list of most international goals in history
Career honours: Serie A x 1, FA Cup x 1 and German Cup x 1

Wang has been charged with six separate counts involving the theft or attempted theft of Apple’s “entire autonomy source code,” tracking systems, behavior planning for autonomous systems, and descriptions of the hardware that was behind the systems. A year into his employment, four months before he quit his job at Apple, Wang accepted a job at the U.S.-based subsidiary of an unnamed Chinese company that was developing autonomous driving technology and he began to siphon “large amounts” of sensitive commercial technology and source code, the indictment alleges.

For many years, rumors have been flying around that Apple has been working on a self-driving car, or at least an electric vehicle with some autonomous functionality. Now, a third former employee has been accused of stealing some of that technology for a Chinese self-driving car company.
A federal court in the Northern District of California has unsealed charges against Weibao Wang, a former Apple software engineer. Wang started working at the company in 2016 as part of a team that developed hardware and software for autonomous systems — technology that could conceivably wind up in self-driving cars.
According to the indictment, in November 2017, Wang accepted a job with a US subsidiary of a Chinese company that was developing self-driving cars but waited more than four months to tell Apple that he was quitting. After Wang left Apple in April 2018, the company found that he “accessed large amounts of sensitive proprietary and confidential information” in the lead up to his departure, the Department of Justice said.
“Large quantities of data taken from Apple” were found during a law enforcement search of Wang’s Mountain View residence that June. Wang told agents that he wasn’t planning to travel, but he flew back to China that night, according to the indictment.
Wang has been charged with six counts of stealing or attempting to steal trade secrets. He faces a maximum prison sentence of 10 years and a fine of $250,000 for each count. However, that depends on officials being able to extradite Wang, who remains in China, as CNBC reports.
This marks the third instance of a former Apple employee being accused of stealing autonomous trade secrets for Chinese entities. Xiaolang Zhang, who worked at Apple at the same time as Wang, pleaded guilty last year to stealing technology from Apple’s car division. Zhang was apprehended at San Jose International Airport in 2018 while trying to board a flight to China.
In 2019, another former employee was arrested before they could flee to China. Jizhong Chen allegedly stole self-driving car tech for a Chinese company. Chen pleaded not guilty and the case is proceeding in federal court.

Wang was on the Annotation Team during his time at Apple, working on algorithms to accelerate the process of annotating real-world objects. Because of his role, he was granted “broad access” to databases that included information for the project. The information that he had access to was limited to just a few thousand of Apple’s more than 135,000 full time employees.
Wang signed confidentiality and Intellectual Property Agreements before being granted access to Apple’s databases, plus he attended secrecy training that covered the consequences of stealing data. Nevertheless, in 2016, he downloaded Apple’s “entire autonomy source code,” and stole additional autonomous systems and hardware information shortly before resigning from his position at Apple in 2018.
When he resigned, Wang did not tell Apple where he planned to go, but it turned out he had accepted a position at the U.S. subsidiary of a Chinese company developing autonomous driving technology. Apple in May 2018 reviewed data access logs and found that Wang accessed sensitive details right before he left, which is when the company involved the Department of Justice.
In June, the DoJ searched Wang’s residence, at which point he purchased a one-way plane ticket from San Francisco, California to Guangzhou, China. After he made it to China, the extent of the theft was uncovered. There is a warrant for Wang’s arrest, and if extradited and convicted, he will face up to 60 years in prison.
Wang is one of three Apple employees accused of attempting to steal Apple Car information for China. Last year, former Apple employee Xiaolang Zhang pled guilty to theft of trade secrets as part of a plea bargain. Zhang also attempted to flee the country, but he was caught. A third accused employee, Jizhong Chen, has pled not guilty.
