In 2013 he was loaned to West Bromwich Albion.
Sinclair was capped for the Three Lions since he was 17. In 2007, the footballer was turned out of the team due to breaking team regulations.
However, in 2009 Scott was called up to the U-20 squad and performed for it till 2010, when he received an invitation to join the U-21 team, where the midfielder took part in seven games and contributed one goal. On 2 July 2012, Sinclair got to the 18-men roster for the 2012 Summer Olympics.
