Sinclair started his career at Bristol City. As a 16-year-old, he was signed by Chelsea who at the time were very keen on signing up all the youngsters they could. Several loan spells followed as Sinclair failed to make a breakthrough at Chelsea. He was frustrated to be on the sidelines and got himself a permanent move to Swansea City, who were then in the Championship.

Sinclair immediately made an impact at The Liberty Stadium and earned Swansea promotion to the Premier League under Brendan Rodgers. On promotion to the Premier League, Sinclair’s good form did not stop as he scored 8 league goals in the Swans’ debut campaign. His affair with the club didn’t last for too much longer, though, as Roberto Mancini’s Manchester City came calling for his services. After moving, he failed to get a proper look-in and failed to score a single goal during his time with The Citizens.  Following a failed loan spell at West Brom, he moved to Aston Villa. Sinclair has again reunited with Brendan Rodgers at Celtic and seems to be atoning for a bad couple of years.
