While he has admitted he would still “love” to manage the Danish national team, the footballer also has a new career on TV.
He presents his own show on Amazon Prime Video called “Nicklas Pranker”.
The clown in question is, of course, Nicklas Bendtner.
The series sees him go undercover to play tricks and pranks on celebrities and members of the public in his native Denmark.
Following the launch of the show last year, the second season premiered on Friday with the first two episodes released.
During the first series, Bendtner appeared in a variety of awkward scenarios, including one episode which saw him smashing art in a gallery.
Meanwhile, another clip from the show sees him dressed as a clown for a prank.
The former striker donned a colourful suit, a red wig and a black hat as he poses for a fake photoshoot.
