Celtic winger admits he has a fight on his hands to win his place back.
Celtic winger Scott Sinclair has admitted there is currerntly no place for him in Brendan Rodgers’ tactical scheme.
Despite this, the former Manchester City and Swansea attacker is hopeful that he can force his manager into a re-think.
Sinclair told The Scottish Sun: “At the moment the manager has gone for wing-backs in a different formation.
“He’s playing with no wingers. But all I can do is continue to work hard in training and try to get into the team.”
The season has just got started, with Celtic playing just one competitive game.
Brendan Rodgers managed Sinclair at Swansea and Celtic, knowing him previously from his time working with Chelsea’s academy.
If there is one manager who is aware of what Sinclair can bring to the table then it is Rodgers, and he won’t be discarding him totally.
Sinclair netted 18 goals in all competitions last season, and 25 the year before that.
The 29-year-old has so much to offer that his absence from the team will only be temporary.
