Cats set to loan Sinclair - Report
RivalsDM, Updated 3 hours ago STORY TOOLS:
Sunderland boss Roy Keane has reportedly lined up a move for Scott Sinclair after Chelsea sought out a Premier League club to take him on loan.
Sinclair impressed during a 17-game spell at Plymouth last season and scored his first goal for Chelsea's senior side in the Carling Cup win over Hull last month.
However, the 18-year-old is still some way off regular first-team action at Stamford Bridge so the Blues have sounded out their Premier League rivals about a possible loan move in January.
Sunderland have Kieran Richardson on the sidelines with a long-term back injury and Keane sees Sinclair as his ideal replacement on the left wing, according to the Daily Mirror.
The former Bristol Rovers trainee will move to the Stadium of Light under a cloud after being kicked out of the England Under-19s squad for breaking a curfew.
