Wolverhampton Wanderers are in need of extra fire-power, and are reportedly interested in Watford’s Jerome Sinclair.

Wolves are one of five Championship clubs who are interested in signing Watford striker Jerome Sinclair on loan in January, according to the Watford Observer.

The 20-year-old only moved to Vicarage Road in July for a fee believed to be in the region of £4 million, but is yet to make a first-team appearance for the Hornets.

The report from the Watford Observer suggests that Sinclair is still hopeful of forcing his way into Watford manager Walter Mazzarri’s plans, but if his situation has not changed by January, he will be willing to make the temporary move away from the club in order to gain more regular first-team football.

The former Liverpool striker is at the age now where he needs to be playing regularly if he is to continue to develop in the manner that he would like, and a loan move would seem to be the sensible option for all parties concerned.

The Watford Observer also go on to claim that Wolves will not have things all their own way in their pursuit of Sinclair, with Brighton & Hove Albion, Bristol City, Norwich City and Brentford also believed to be interested in the 20-year-old hitman.

He is a striker with massive amounts of potential, and would have so much to offer any side in the Championship, should he eventually leave Watford in January.
