Ian Harte has praised Leeds United youngster Jack Clarke on social networking site Twitter.

The 40-year-old former Leeds left-back was impressed with the performance of Clarke for the Whites’ Under-23 side against their Cardiff City counterparts on Friday.

The 17-year-old stole the show for the West Yorkshire outfit, as they got the better of Cardiff 3-0 in the Professional Development League.

Former Leeds and Republic of Ireland international left-back Harte was following the match, and he was impressed with the performance of the young forward.

Harte had spoken highly of the teenager on Twitter back in September 2017 and November 2017 (click here and here to read more).

Clarke is playing well for the Leeds Under-23 side at the moment, and it is only a matter of time before he gets the chance to feature for the West Yorkshire outfit’s senior team.

Leeds are pretty much out of the running for the Championship playoffs this season, and it is time for the Whites to start planning for the 2017-18 campaign.
