Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner has reportedly been ruled out for six weeks with an ankle injury.
The Dane landed awkwardly when scoring the Gunners' opening goal as they beat Cardiff City 2-0 on New Year's Day.
The problem is expected to keep him out for the best part of two months, according to Goal.com.
Manager Arsene Wenger recently ruled out a move for Atletico Madrid striker Diego Costa.
