Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Crystal Palace have been linked with Leeds United’s Jack Clarke.

Leeds United's Jack Clarke battles with Nottingham Forest's Ben Osborn at Elland Road on October 27, 2018 in Leeds, England.

According to a report in the Daily Mail, Tottenham Hotspur are ready to make a £10 million move for Leeds United’s Jack Clarke with Arsenal and Crystal Palace also keen on the youngster.

Clarke has shown huge promise for Leeds in a thrilling season where the Whites fell just short of promotion, finishing third in the Championship before losing to Derby County 4-3 in the playoff semi-finals.

The 18-year-old made his debut for Leeds in the 1-1 draw with Brentford back in October and went on to make another 23 league appearances, scoring two goals and grabbing two assists.

Palace was said to have made a bid for the tricky winger in January, while the Gunners and Tottenham are said to have been tracking him throughout the season as they monitor his progress.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is seemingly convinced by his potential, and the North London club are ready to offer Leeds £10 million for his signature.

Tottenham have made a habit of signing the best young players and developing them at White Hart Lane. Dele Alli and Danny Rose both came from outside the top-flight, with the latter trading Leeds for Spurs in 2007.

Leeds will be hoping to keep hold of their better players as they bid for another promotion charge next season. However, after the campaign they have had, they will surely face plenty of interest this summer.
