Tottenham Hotspur are being linked with Leeds United’s Jack Clarke.
Leeds United are challenging for promotion under Marcelo Bielsa – but their superb displays mean some players are attracting major interest.
The Whites sit top of the Championship table and look a strong bet to return to the top flight after a 15-year absence after beating Rotherham United on Saturday.
One of the most impressive players of late has been winger Jack Clarke, with the homegrown wide man emerging as a real star under Bielsa.
Clarke, 18, has notched two goals and two assists this season, showing great potential having terrorised full backs with pace and dribbling.
Clarke is now a wanted man, with The Mirror reporting that Tottenham remain keen on signing the teenager before Thursday’s transfer deadline.
Spurs would seemingly have to offer to loan Clarke back to Leeds to stand any chance of a deal, which seems unlikely anyway, both because Spurs will be reluctant to spend massively and Leeds won’t want to let their prized prospect go.
Now, Clarke’s agent Ian Harte – a former Leeds defender – has taken to Twitter to shoot down the rumours, claiming that Clarke will be staying at Elland Road and wants to help the club win promotion this season.
