Leeds United have no plans to sell winger Jack Clarke this month.
According to the Yorkshire Evening Post, Leeds United have snubbed an approach from Crystal Palace for winger Jack Clarke this week.
The Whites are thriving under Marcelo Bielsa, sitting top of the Championship and looking like the favourites to win the title and return to the Premier League.
Away from the Spygate saga, Leeds have been able to count on a host of players for impressive displays this season, but some of them are now attracting interest.
Kalvin Phillips and Kemar Roofe have both been linked with Premier League clubs of late, and winger Clarke is another name recently mentioned for top flight clubs.
Now, the Yorkshire Evening Post report that Leeds have received an approach for Clarke from Crystal Palace this week, but have rejected their efforts.
It’s noted that Leeds don’t want to sell Clarke in January, and they value him at beyond £10million anyway, meaning summer would be the earliest window for a potential deal.
Clarke, 18, has come up through the Leeds ranks, and has broken into Bielsa’s side this season, turning in some sensational performances both as a substitute and as a starter.
Clarke has grabbed two goals and two assists this season, with his pace and dribbling really catching the eye, but it’s no surprise that Leeds are resisting approaches given their target of returning to the Premier League.
