Manchester City winger Scott Sinclair has joined Aston Villa on loan for the rest of the season, the Premier League clubs said on Friday.
.
The 25-year-old has failed to secure a regular place in the City side since his move to the Etihad Stadium from Swansea City in 2012 and has made only two appearances in the league this season.
.
Sinclair spent last season on loan at West Bromwich Albion, making 11 appearances in all competitions.
.
Champions City said the temporary deal with Villa could be made permanent at the end of the campaign.
.
“I am still hungry to play football, that’s what I told him (Villa manager Paul Lambert), and I’m looking forwarding to getting started, hopefully playing every week and enjoying my football,” Sinclair said in a statement on Villa’s website (www.avfc.co.uk).
.
“I believe I have my best years ahead of me. This is a new challenge, a new chapter in my life, and hopefully I can settle in as quickly as possible, have a good start and go from there.”
