Leeds United winger Jack Clarke has congratulated his teammate Jamie Shackleton on Twitter following his call-up to the England Under-20 squad.

As announced on Leeds’s official website, Shackleton, who can play as a central midfielder or as a right wing-back, has been called up to England’s U20s squad for the Maurice Revello Tournament.

Clarke, who can also operate as a forward, has congratulated the 19-year-old midfielder on Twitter, and some Leeds fans have responded to the teenager’s message.

Fans of the Championship club have urged the Clarke to stay at Elland Road beyond the summer transfer window amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur.

According to The Daily Mail, Tottenham are interested in signing the winger from Leeds this summer.

According to WhoScored, the 18-year-old English teenager made four starts and 20 substitute appearances in the Championship for Leeds this season, scoring two goals and providing two assists in the process.

While Leeds finished third in the Championship table this season and failed to win promotion via the playoffs, Tottenham ended up in the top four of the Premier League and have also progressed to the final of the Champions League.
