The teenager played his first game for Leeds United since joining Tottenham Hotspur.
Tottenham Hotspur’s Jack Clarke has reacted on Instagram after making his second Leeds United debut.
Clarke re-signed for his boyhood club on a season-long loan immediately after joining Tottenham this summer.
On Tuesday, Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa started him in the 3-0 League Cup win at Salford City – his first competitive game since returning to West Yorkshire.
The 18-year-old, who was given 70 minutes by Bielsa, reacted on Instagram by saying that he had some ‘very enjoyable minutes’.
Here’s how some Spurs fans responded to his post-match message.
dan.clarke777: You played well good well done
adrian.bhm: You are a big talent. Come on budd
_lixmjones4056: Spursy boy
slade1826: Clarkey bring Kelvin with ya pal. COYS.
whitehartreign: keep shining, kid
hotspurnow: Follow me if you love spurs and Poch!
abdullahafarid: cant wait to see you in a spurs shirt jack
harv1610: Hopefully you do that for spurs @jrclarke_
Performance wise, it wasn’t a brilliant second debut and some Leeds fans criticised the display on Twitter afterwards.
But it’s worth pointing out that it was his first game following a much-publicised transfer saga – and, of course, he’s still only a kid who doesn’t turn 19 until later this year.
He will surely get better, but whether he can dislodge Jack Harrison – on a season-long loan from Manchester City – on the left wing for Championship affairs is another question.
