Palace target Clarke ready to quit Leeds for Tottenham

Crystal Palace target Jack Clarke will reportedly tell Leeds United that he wants to leave Elland Road for Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

According to Football Insider, the talented teenager will inform Whites’ chiefs, including boss Marcelo Bielsa, over his desire to make the move to London with Tottenham this summer.

Palace have been keeping tabs on the 18-year-old over recent months after the wide man broke through into the first-team last year.

Clarke made 25 appearances in all competitions last season, impressing with numerous impact displays from the bench.

Palace boss Roy Hodgson looks set to be active in the market this summer, especially in terms of attacking reinforcements, with star man Wilfried Zaha heavily linked with a move away from Selhurst Park ahead of the new season.

However, a move for Clarke now looks increasingly unlikely following the player’s reported wishes, with the teenager looking set to join Mauricio Pochettino’s side ahead of the new season.
