Leeds United manager wants to calm the Jack Clarke hype.
Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa has attempted to play down the hype over top talent Jack Clarke.
Match of the Day host Gary Lineker hailed Clarke this week along with a number of top talents when reacting to England’s Euro 2020 qualifying win, expressing his excitement at the future of the Three Lions.
Clarke, 18, has only started four Championship games in his career to date.
Bielsa was asked about Lineker including him along with stellar names like Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho.
He was understandably keen to calm the excitement.
He told the Yorkshire Evening Post: “Imagine the future. In something like football, at the end it’s typical that something totally different happens to what people think.
“No-one has the link to know what is going to happen.”
Bielsa’s comments are a reminder to Clarke too as well as the media, that nothing can be taken for granted.
Clarke must keep working hard to become a success and join the elite group of players he is being connected with.
