Scott Andrew Sinclair (born 25 March 1989) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for Celtic. He previously played for Bristol Rovers, Chelsea, Plymouth Argyle, Queens Park Rangers, Charlton Athletic, Crystal Palace, Birmingham City, Wigan Athletic, Swansea City, Manchester City, West Bromwich Albion and Aston Villa. He represented England at youth level, from the under-17s to the under-21s, and also played for Great Britain at the 2012 Olympics.

Early life

Sinclair was born in Bath, Somerset,[1] where he attended Ralph Allen School.[3] He began his career with Bath Arsenal.[4]

Club career

Bristol Rovers

Sinclair joined Bristol Rovers at the age of nine.[5] He became the second-youngest Bristol Rovers first-team debutant – at the age of 15 years 277 days – as a late substitute for Junior Agogo in the League Two game against Leyton Orient in December 2004.[6]

Chelsea

Chelsea signed Sinclair in July 2005. A Football League tribunal set the compensation to be paid to Bristol Rovers at an initial £200,000, with increments up to a potential £750,000 to be paid if and when the player met various appearance milestones at club or international level. Chelsea would also have to pay Rovers 15% of the profit on any future sale.[7]

Sinclair was called up to Chelsea's squad to play Macclesfield Town in the FA Cup on 6 January 2007 but remained on the bench.[8] His debut came four days later as a very late substitute in the 2007 League Cup semi-final against Wycombe Wanderers.[9] He scored his first goal for Chelsea in September 2007, in the 37th minute of the League Cup third-round match against Hull City to help Chelsea win 4–0.[10] He provided the assist for Frank Lampard's 100th goal for Chelsea, in a 3–1 victory over Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup.[11] He made his league debut for Chelsea on 6 May 2007, when he came off the bench to replace Shaun Wright-Phillips for the final ten minutes of the game against Arsenal.[12]

Plymouth Argyle (loan)

During the January transfer window, Sinclair was signed on a month's loan by Plymouth Argyle, whose manager Ian Holloway had noticed him as a 10-year-old prospect at former club Bristol Rovers.[13] He made his debut as a substitute in the 3–2 victory over Coventry City at Home Park.[12] In his second game, the FA Cup fourth-round tie against Barnet, he scored a fine individual goal to seal a 2–0 victory, taking the ball half the length of the pitch before beating the goalkeeper and scoring a smashing goal.[14]

Sinclair also scored against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux to put Plymouth 1–0 up in the game, which they drew 2–2.[15]

On 17 February 2007 Sinclair scored the second goal, with a looping header from a David Norris cross, as Argyle defeated Derby County 2–0 in their FA Cup fifth-round tie.[16] This result put the club through to the last eight for the first time since 1984.[17] He played in the quarter-final, but Plymouth went down 1–0 to Watford and he was substituted in the second half of the game.[18]

On 17 March, Sinclair ran from his own half past two defenders before hitting the ball in off the crossbar to score the only goal of the home match against Crystal Palace.[19]

Return to Chelsea

On 6 May 2007 he was named in the Chelsea squad to face Arsenal in one of Chelsea's most crucial matches of the season: anything but a win would have handed Manchester United the Premier League title. Sinclair came on as a substitute for Wright-Phillips but was unable to stop Chelsea drawing 1–1.[20] He made his first start for Chelsea in the following Premier League game, against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge, and suffered a broken metatarsal after a challenge from Wes Brown.[21]

Sinclair signed a new four-year deal on 15 August 2007.[22] He was given squad number 17 for the new season,[23] and made his first appearance as a late substitute in the 2007 FA Community Shield against Manchester United.[24] On 25 September he scored his first senior goal for the club in a 4–0 win against Hull City in the League Cup.[25] He was picked in the starting eleven against Leicester City in the fourth round of the League Cup; he was involved in Chelsea's first two goals and his shot was turned onto the post by Leicester's goalkeeper.[26]

Short loan spells

Queens Park Rangers reportedly "beat off stiff competition from eight other Championship clubs" to sign Sinclair on loan for a month from 6 November 2007.[27] Sinclair's last goal for Plymouth had been against Crystal Palace, and he followed this up by scoring his first for QPR against the same club.[28]

He played four times for Chelsea on his return,[24] before going out on loan again in February 2008. Ian Holloway, who had managed Sinclair at Plymouth Argyle, wanted to take the player to Leicester City, but Chelsea wanted him to join a club which was nearer the top of the table.[29] On 28 February, Sinclair joined Charlton Athletic on loan until the end of the season.[30] Finding his first team opportunities limited at Charlton, he made just three appearances off the bench and the loan was terminated after a month.[31]

On 27 March, Sinclair joined Crystal Palace on loan until the end of the season.[31] He scored twice, against Hull[32] and Burnley,[33] in six appearances and helped Palace to finish fifth in the Championship. Sinclair played in the play-off semi-finals, in which Palace lost to Bristol City.[24]

Return to Chelsea

Sinclair playing for Chelsea in 2008

Sinclair was offered a chance by new manager Luiz Felipe Scolari to prove himself as a first-team player, although he still played in most of the Reserves' matches. On 8 August 2008, Sinclair was handed the number 16 for Chelsea, swapping with José Bosingwa (wore 16 during pre-season) who was given Sinclair's previous number 17. He was the second youngest player in the Chelsea first team for the season, older than the youngest, striker Franco Di Santo, by thirteen days. He made his first league appearance of the season at Middlesbrough on 18 October in Chelsea's 5–0 win.

Birmingham City (loan)

In January 2009, Sinclair joined Championship club Birmingham City on loan for an initial period of one month,[34] which was later extended to the remainder of the 2008–09 season.[35] He made 14 appearances for the club, and returned to Chelsea on 4 May.[36]

Return to Chelsea

Interim manager Guus Hiddink named Sinclair among the substitutes for the match against Blackburn Rovers on 17 May, but he did not play.[37] New coach Carlo Ancelotti included him in the squad that travelled to the United States for a pre-season tour, where he featured in two matches.[38][39]

Wigan Athletic (loan)

Sinclair joined Premier League club Wigan Athletic on 6 August 2009 on loan for the 2009–10 season.[40] He scored his first goal for Wigan in a 2–1 defeat at Hull City on 3 October,[41] and his second, again against Hull, in the FA Cup on 2 January 2010.[42]

Swansea City

In summer 2010, Sinclair was linked with a move to Blackpool, who had recently been promoted to the Premier League under Ian Holloway, but no move materialised.[43] He signed a three-year deal with Championship club Swansea City on 9 August 2010 for a £500,000 fee, with the potential for the fee to rise to £1m depending on the club's future success.[44][45] He made his debut in a 4–0 win against Preston North End on 14 August, during which he had a goal disallowed.[46] He scored his first goal for the club against Tranmere Rovers in the League Cup, and his first League goal for Swansea was scored on 28 August in the 1–0 home win against recently relegated Burnley.[47] Sinclair scored his first career hat-trick on 21 September in a 3–1 League Cup win against Peterborough United.[48] A brace against Leeds United on 26 February 2011 took his goal tally for the season to 21.[47] Swansea qualified for the end-of-season play-offs and reached the final, played at Wembley Stadium on 30 May. In a "pulsating" match against Reading, Sinclair scored a hat-trick that included two penalties as Swansea won 4–2.[49][50] The result meant a return to the top division of English football for the club, having been relegated from the old First Division in 1982–83, and they became the first Welsh club to reach the Premier League.[49]

Sinclair scored Swansea's first Premier League goal on 17 September 2011 with a penalty in a 3–0 win against West Bromwich Albion.[51] He became Swansea's main penalty taker, scoring penalties against Stoke City,[52] Bolton Wanderers,[53] Fulham and Arsenal.[54] On 31 January 2012, Sinclair scored against his former club Chelsea, in a game that ended in a 1–1 draw.[55] After scoring 13 penalties since joining the club, his streak ended on 15 March when Manchester City's Joe Hart saved his attempt. Swansea won the match 1–0, and Sinclair said he was still willing to continue taking Swansea's penalties.[56]

With one season remaining on his contract with Swansea, it was confirmed on 17 August that Sinclair would not be signing a new deal with the club.[57] On the opening day of the 2012–13 season, he scored in a substitute appearance as Swansea beat Queens Park Rangers 5–0 at Loftus Road.[58]

Manchester City

Sinclair signed a four-year contract with champions Manchester City on 31 August 2012, moving from Swansea for a reported transfer fee of £8 million including add-ons.[59] He was given the number 11 shirt, and made his debut on 15 September, playing 74 minutes of a 1–1 draw away to Stoke City.[58][60] He started against Arsenal on 23 September, coming off at half-time, and was thereafter relegated to the bench. He made only one further start all season, away at Dortmund in the Champions League group stage on 4 December, with both teams' final position already decided. His twelve other appearances that season were all coming on late from the bench.[61] His final appearance of the season came as an 83rd-minute substitute on 21 April 2013, in a 3–1 loss away to Tottenham Hotspur.[58] On 8 May, he had surgery on a blood clot in his shoulder, ending a frustrating season in which he played only 190 minutes of league football, after which he suggested that manager Roberto Mancini had not given him a fair chance.[62][63]

West Bromwich Albion (loan)

Sinclair joined West Bromwich Albion on 22 August 2013 on a season-long loan, with the option to complete a permanent deal.[64] Sinclair found it hard to break in the team mostly playing in reserve team matches.[65]

Aston Villa

On 30 January 2015, after failing to break into the Manchester City starting eleven, Sinclair joined Aston Villa for the remainder of the season on loan.[66] He made his debut in a 5–0 defeat at Arsenal on 1 February, replacing Andreas Weimann after 65 minutes.[67] Sinclair scored his first goal for Villa after 89 minutes of a 2–1 win in the fifth round of the FA Cup against Leicester City on 15 February,[68] and six days later, scored their only goal in a 2–1 defeat at home to Stoke City.[69] He scored again in Villa's 2–0 FA Cup quarter-final victory over local rivals West Bromwich Albion.[70]

On 19 May 2015, after Villa had secured Premier League safety, it was announced that Sinclair would be joining on a permanent basis at the end of the season for an undisclosed fee, reported as £2.5 million, signing a four-year contract.[71] He said that "This is the happiest I have been in a long time."[72][73]

On 25 August 2015, Sinclair scored a hat-trick against Notts County in a 5–3 victory for the home side in the second round of the League Cup.[74] Four days later, in the Premier League, Sinclair scored both goals for Villa in a 2-2 draw with Sunderland.[75]

Celtic

On 7 August 2016, Sinclair signed a four-year deal with Scottish Premiership champions Celtic[76] for a reported transfer fee of around £3 million, which could potentially rise to £4.5m with add-ons.[77] He made his debut later that day, coming on as a substitute for Stuart Armstrong against Hearts, and scored the winner in the 81st minute, slotting in Leigh Griffiths' cross to put Celtic 2-1 ahead.[78] On 18 September, Sinclair became the first Celtic player since Jimmy McGrory in 1922 to score in each of his first five league matches.[79]

International career

Sinclair was selected for the England under-19s for their matches during October 2007, but, together with Andy Carroll and Ryan Bertrand, he was sent home after breaking a team curfew.[80]

England U21s

On 12 November 2010 he was called up for the England under-21s for their friendly against the German under-21s. He earned his first cap playing in this friendly where England lost 2–0. In May 2011, Sinclair was named in the England squad for the Under-21 European Championships.[81]

John Barnes, the former Jamaica coach, tried to convince Sinclair to play for the Jamaica national football team.[82]

Great Britain Olympic football team

On 2 July 2012, Sinclair was named in Stuart Pearce's 18-man squad for the 2012 Olympics.[83] He scored the second goal in Team GB's second game of the tournament, against UAE.

Personal life

His brother Martin has cerebral palsy, and was selected in the Great Britain Cerebral Palsy football team for the 2012 Summer Paralympics.[84] As of 2015, his younger brother Jake played professionally for Southampton.[85]

Sinclair has been in a relationship with actress Helen Flanagan since 2009.[86] Their daughter Matilda Jessica Sinclair was born in June 2015.[87]
