Reportedly seen and positioned (5)
I believe the answer is:
sited
'positioned' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'reportedly seen' is the wordplay.
'reportedly' shows a homophone (sound like).
'seen' becomes 'sighted' (I've seen this before).
'sighted' sounds like 'SITED'.
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for sited that I've seen before include "Positioned" , "installed" , "Situated" , "Put" , "Placed, located" .)
