Brighton and Bournemouth consider summer bids to bring Celtic star Scott Sinclair back to the Premier League

Premier League clubs Brighton and Bournemouth are monitoring Scott Sinclair's situation at Celtic, with a view to offering Scotland's Player of the Year a return to England this summer.

Sinclair joined Celtic on a £3.5million transfer from Aston Villa in 2016 and was a spectacular success in his first Treble-winning season, scoring 25 goals and sweeping the boards with his various awards.

Although he has notched a healthy tally of 17 goals this term, he has cut a more subdued figure and has started Celtic's last two league games on the bench.

One of those matches was the 3-2 victory over Rangers at Ibrox, a result that was marred for Sinclair as he was verbally abused at a Glasgow Airport lounge while waiting to board a flight to London.
