Sinclair joined Celtic in the summer of 2016 from Aston Villa until his January departure to Preston North End. Before that, he had spells at Manchester City, Chelsea and Swansea City (via Transfermarkt).

What do we think?

As a Celtic player, Sinclair made 167 appearances in all competitions for the Hoops. He scored 62 goals, while picking up 36 assists for the club (via Transfermarkt).

Sinclair won as many as three Premiership titles (in contributing to last year’s triumph) and was also named as the club’s Player of the Year by the supporters and his teammates in his first season. This shows what an important player he was for the club and it is good to see Celtic fans giving him credit for his contributions at Parkhead.
