Scott Sinclair Bio

Scott Sinclair is a Chelsea player who has played plenty of London football. Though very little of it for Chelsea as they continue to send him out on loan to gain experience. Season 2007/8 saw him spend time on loan at QPR, Crystal Palace and Charlton as first-team opportunities were limited at Stamford Bridge.

Sinclair signed for Chelsea in 2005 having come through the ranks with Bristol Rovers, and he did so without telling his old club his intentions. It caused much anger in Bristol.

The forward made his debut for Rovers at the age of 15 against Leyton Orient and had made only three appearances before making the switch to Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea were ordered to pay Rovers £200,000 for the player, rising to £1million based on his progress. Rovers also have a 15 per cent sell-on clause.

Although made his Chelsea debut in a 1-1 League Cup draw with Wycombe, replacing Salomon Kalou for the final moments, it was during a loan spell at Plymouth that Sinclair came to prominence.

Sinclair moved to the Pilgrims in January 2007 and made his bow in a 3-2 home win over Coventry City. He then bagged his first ever goal in the following game, a 2-1 FA Cup win at Barnet.

On his return to Chelsea he made his Premier League debut in a 1-1 draw at Arsenal, replacing Shaun Wright-Phillips for the final ten minutes.
