Regular readers might recall my respect for veteran journalist Alan Nixon, whose track record in respect of football transfers can best be described as impeccable.
Leeds United appear to have agreed a deal with Tottenham for Jack Clarke.
Clarke should sign for somewhere in the region of £8.5million plus the usual business of add-ons taking the whole deal to around the £13million mark.
Leeds United fans have been whining on social media about the quoted terms, but the truth is, fans like this need a reality check. Perhaps if their club could get its act together and make the top flight, Leeds the one club city could have some muscles to flex.
Clarke’s arrival is welcome, but doesn’t warrant excitement, the lad is barely shaving and has what, half a professional season to his CV?
