West Ham legend says he would have loved to play for Celtic

Celtic vs Hearts

English Premier League legend Trevor Sinclair has admitted that he would have loved the opportunity to have played for Celtic.

The 44 year old Sinclair turned out for the likes of Manchester City and West Ham during his career and finished off with 12 appearances for the England national team.

He has however been a Celtic fan for over 30 years due to his mother’s heritage and admitted that he would have loved to have emulated fellow England internationals such as Chris Sutton, Ian Wright and John Hartson and joined the Hoops.

Considering that Sinclair was a decent performer in the Premier League, the chances are high that he would have been very successful in Scotland.

He said, “I never heard of any interest from Celtic during my career but would have loved to have followed former team mates John Hartson, Ian Wright and from the England set up Chris Sutton at some stage in my career. I do actually think if social media would have existed when I was playing I’d have played for Celtic.”
