Ian Harte prepared to get Leeds United fans excited over Jack Clarke message on Tuesday

Leeds United fans are going to be excited about transfer target Jack Clarke after the stats that Ian Harte has shared.

The former Elland Road favourite is the agent to the Sunderland star and is clearly trying to build hype around his client.

The Whites have shown an interest in resigning the 23-year-old as a replacement option for outbound star Georginio Rutter [Sunday Mirror].

Although a £25million price tag from the Black Cats [Sunderland Echo] may discourage a deal, Harte doesn’t appear to have given up hope.

Ian Harte shares exciting Jack Clarke stats for Leeds United fans

The winger’s agent shared an image via X on Tuesday (20 August) showing him to be the most productive Championship player since the start of the 2022/23 season.

The former Bournemouth and Reading man revealed that his client has scored 25 and assisted 18 leaving him three involvements clear of Sammie Szmodics in second place, in the time period.

 

This statistic is bound to get Leeds fans sitting up and taking notice of their ex-starlet who has flourished in the second tier.

Under Marcelo Bielsa, Clarke was a standout as a youngster but went on to have failed spells with Tottenham Hotspur and Stoke City.

There is no doubt that he has found a home at the Stadium of Light where he has found the form everyone at Elland Road knew he was capable of.

Now the Whites are facing a crisis in attacking areas with the 23-year-old likely to be the perfect replacement option for their outbound stars.
