Leeds United winger Jack Clarke 'passes Tottenham Hotspur medical'

Leeds United winger Jack Clarke reportedly completes his medical at Tottenham Hotspur ahead of his expected £11.5m move to the Champions League runners-up.

Leeds United winger Jack Clarke has completed his medical at Tottenham Hotspur ahead of his proposed move to the Premier League outfit, according to a report.

Spurs are understood to have agreed an initial £8.5m deal which could rise to £11.5m for the 18-year-old, who enjoyed a breakthrough campaign to help Leeds into the Championship playoffs last season.

Some details still need to be finalised before the transfer is formally completed, but Sky Sports News reports that Clarke has now passed his medical.

The youngster is poised to become Tottenham's first new signing since Lucas Moura joined the club in January 2018, with the Champions League runners-up failing to bring in a single player over the past two transfer windows.

Spurs could yet sign another player in the near future too, with Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele closing in on a club-record deal which Mauricio Pochettino is hopeful of completing by the end of this week.

Clarke made 25 appearances for Leeds during the 2018-19 campaign, scoring two goals as Leeds finished third before losing in the playoff semi-finals.
