Sunderland are facing a challenge to keep hold of Jack Clarke as the summer transfer window enters its final eight days.
Clarke, who has become one of the Championship’s top wingers in recent seasons, scored 15 goals and provided four assists last season. He’s already off the mark this term, having netted in Sunderland’s opener against Cardiff.
Given his impressive form, it’s no surprise that Premier League interest is building. Sky Sports has recently provided an update on his situation.
**Ipswich and Southampton Target Sunderland Winger Jack Clarke**
According to Sky Sports journalists Keith Downie and Dharmesh Sheth, both Ipswich Town and Southampton are vying to sign Jack Clarke.
“Sunderland have already rejected bids from both clubs, as well as interest from elsewhere during this transfer window. However, Ipswich recently returned with an improved offer worth £15 million plus performance-related add-ons. Kieran McKenna, Ipswich’s manager, has admired Clarke since taking charge at the club. Clarke still has two years remaining on his Sunderland contract.”
**Jack Clarke Expresses Desire to Leave Sunderland**
TBR Football reports that Clarke has informed Sunderland of his desire to leave this month, having turned down multiple contract extensions. Sunderland are reportedly seeking a fee exceeding £20 million, with negotiations ongoing.
The coming week will be crucial in determining Clarke’s future.
