Leeds United youngster will have Derby worried.
Leeds United winger Jack Clarke’s season peaked with his performance against Derby in January.
Clarke inspired a 2-0 win with a dazzling performance at Elland Road.
Since then he has had a difficult few months, missing weeks of action after falling ill on the bench against Middlesbrough.
Clarke has found it tough to make an impact since, and has seemed to lack confidence. That may have changed on Monday.
Clarke scored the winning penalty for Leeds’ under-23 team in the PDL final at Elland Road against Birmingham in a shootout.
The young winger was mobbed by his teammates, and took on the role of a hero.
It was just what Clarke needed, and will give him a big lift for the play-offs.
Leeds need the Jack Clarke they had in January, and just his presence coming off the bench will unsettle Derby.
His big moment for the under-23s may finally have got him back on track.
