Manchester City are lining up a shock raid for Swansea City winger Scott Sinclair.

The Sunday Mirror says City are considering making one of the shock moves of the transfer window by launching a bid to sign Team GB winger Sinclair from Swansea.

Sinclair, 23, is stalling on a new Swansea contract and Premier League champions City have moved ahead of Liverpool, Aston Villa and Fulham in the queue to sign him.

City can go for as little as £5m, and City would treble his £20,000-a-week Swansea salary.
