Jack Clarke has swapped Leeds United for Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham have completed the signing of Jack Clarke from Leeds United.

The 18-year-old sensation has signed a four-year deal with the North London club to become their first signing since January of 2018 – or 518 days to be specific [The Daily Mail].

As part of the £8.5 million deal, Clarke, who began his career at Thorp Arch, will re-sign for Leeds on a season-long loan for the upcoming season.

And former Whites left-back Ian Harte, the winger’s agent, has sent a quick message to his client on Twitter.

Clarke is technically the fourth signing that the Elland Road club have made in the past 24 hours, after Jack Harrison, Ben White and Liam McCarron moved to Leeds on Monday.

But the teenager isn’t guaranteed first-team football under Marcelo Bielsa, who has Harrison back from Manchester City and will also have Helder Costa on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers this week.

Clarke started only four Championship games for United last term.
