The winger went into the summer emerging as one of English football's biggest talents after making 24 appearances for boyhood clubWhile he'd started just four times in the Championship, Spurs knew how big a talent he was after the then 18-year-old was trusted as part of the squad for Leeds' play-off semi-final double-header with Derby - a high-stakes occasion after the 'Spygate' debacle.
“I knew I’d done quite well in a debut season at Leeds, but you never expect a team who’ve just lost in the Champions League final to be knocking on the door. Another ill-fated Championship loan spell arose in January 2021, this time with Stoke City, but after starting just six times the starlet was at serious risk of seeing his potential fizzle out.
With modest aspirations of merely preserving their Championship status, Clarke racked up 11 goals and 14 assists as Sunderland forced themselves into play-off contention, only to be beaten by Luton Town over two legs in the semi-finals. “In football, it’s hard to get to a point where you are happy and just stay at that point. We all have ups and downs in terms of form and whatever else. But since I’ve come to this club, I feel like it’s been on an upward trajectory and with that direction, you don’t want to be left behind. The club’s getting stronger. You want to be in line with that; be one of those driving it forward.
