The Swans signed the highly-rated winger from Premier League champions Chelsea in August 2010 on a three-year deal for an initial £500,000, although the figure could break the £1m barrier for the first time in the club's history depending on add-ons relating to the club's future success.
The 21-year-old worked under Swans boss Brendan Rodgers at Chelsea, a crucial factor in securing his signature ahead of other interested clubs.
Born in Bath, Sinclair joined Bristol Rovers as a nine year old before making his first team debut at the age of 15 against Leyton Orient.
It prompted Chelsea to sign him up in July 2005 for a tribunal fixed compensation fee of £200,000, plus extras and a 15 per cent sell-on clause on any transfer profit.
The England Under-20 international made five Premier League appearances and eight in the cups for the Blues and impressed on loan at QPR, Charlton, Crystal Palace, Plymouth, Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic.
